We have made a study of the use of Duoderm hydroactive sterile occlusive dressing on 10 patients for skin donor sites. Its therapeutic efficacy is evident and the dressing enhances the wound debridement and accelerates the re-epithelialization, with complete healing in 8.5 days on the average. ⋯ In addition, the new skin is softer, smoother and more homogeneous. Duoderm is also easy to use and is well tolerated by the patients.
