摘要
Biobrane remains an excellent biosynthetic dressing for thermal injury coverage. The present report of a probable case of toxic shock syndrome associated with its use does not question its efficacy as temporary coverage for partial thickness thermal bums. Instead, attention is focused on raising the index of suspicion of toxic shock syndrome in burn patients treated with Biobrane, or other occlusive dressings, who develop early signs or symptoms which may be consistent with the diagnosis.
