| description | Objective: In order to heal burn wounds, many researches have been done, including the
use of biological scaffolds due to their ability to achieve the desired properties. Owing to
the appropriate biological properties of chitosan such as biocompatibility and antimicrobial
properties as well as the promotion of wound healing in biomedical applications, we aimed
to perform a systematic review to investigate the effect of this technology on the treatment
of burn hazards victims.
Methods: The present research was conducted in 2020 as a systematic review of studies
related to the effect of chitosan on burns. In this study, Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic
Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP)
guidelines were used to assess the articles. The key words “Chitosan,” “Chitin,” “victim,”
“Injury,” “Burn,” “Heal,” “wound” “treat,” “hazard,” and “care” were used in combination
with the Boolean operators OR and AND. The ISI web of science, PubMed, Scopus, Science
Direct, Ovid, Pro Quest, Wiley and Google Scholar were searched.
Results: Recently, chitosan and its derivatives have been proposed as suitable candidates for
scaffolding and can be used as temporary scaffolds to modify and stimulate the growth of
new tissues. Studies to demonstrate the use of chitosan in the treatment of burns have been
limited to research on animal models and have been superior to conventional therapies in
terms of time, pain, and efficacy.
Conclusion: The effect of chitosan on burns has been positive in animal models and has
accelerated wound healing. Since the main ingredient of chit powder is chitosan and due to
the limited studies done on humans, it cannot be said with certainty that the use of chitosan
and its derivatives to treat burns is better than other ways to treat burns. |
