    AbstractIn order to compare the therapeutic value of moist burn ointment (MBO) and betadine ointment in severe burns, the authors divided 30 patients with burn over 30% TBSA into two groups. In one group MBO was used, and in another group betadine was used. The result showed; 1. The difference between two groups was not great in superficial II degree burn wound. 2. MBO was less effective than betadine in deep burn wound. MBO had little antibacterial effect, wound healing was delayed, and incidences of infection, complication and mortality were higher. At the same time, MBO did not have noticeable effect in inhibiting scar hypertrophy. The authors suggest that MBO must be used with caution in severe burn patients, especially in the southern provinces where the climate is hot and humid.
