Conditions
Interventions
The wound in the study group was covered with the closed burn wound dressing using a hydrofiber with silver method. The primary dressing was a hydrofiber with silver (Aquacel® Ag+ Extra™
Convatec,
UK). The hydrofiber was fixed with sterile adhesive tape (Steri-
StripTM
3MTM,
USA),
which was adhered to the hydrofiber and periwound skin without application directly to the wound. The secondary dressing was cotton wool with a non-
woven cover. An elastic bandage was then used to wrap around the primary and secondary dressings to fix the dressing materials to the body part. The dressings were used to cover the wound for 14 days.
the change was made only on the secondary dressing and elastic bandage without changing the primary dressing so as not to disturb the reepithelialization process. The wound bed inspection was conducte
woven cover. An elastic bandage was also used to wrap around the primary and secondary dressings to fix the dressing materials to the body part. The dressing was changed daily. The dressing materials
and the wound was cleaned with normal saline. The Vaseline gauzes and the cotton wool with a non-
woven cover were reapplied. The final wound measurement was conducted on day 14.

Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: The inclusion criteria were the patients with superficial second-degree burn wounds on the trunk or extremities. The superficial second degree was defined as the wounds that were erythema, tender, and could contain blisters. The etiology must be scald or flamed burn. The time of injury was within 48 hours to reduce the risk of infection.17 The total body surface area did not exceed 30% to prevent the chance of immunosuppression.18,19 Included patients were over seven years of age and were haemodynamically stable (mean arterial pressure ≥ 65 mmHg, urine output of 0.5-1 mL/kg/h, and adequate conscious to answer the pain number rating scale). Written or fingerprint informed consent was obtained from all participants.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: The exclusion criteria were the wound that contained other types of burn wounds such as deep second degree, third degree, and indeterminate burn. The wounds within 15 cm around the perianal and genital area were excluded because of the chance of fecal or urine contamination. Heavily contaminated wounds and the patients with pregnancy, bleeding tendency, diabetes mellitus, or psychiatric disorder were also excluded.
