Review on Current Advancements in Facilitation of Burn Wound Healing.

Burns are common injuries, but their treatment remains challenging due to the complex nature of the wound healing process. Burn wounds are classified into different categories based on their size and depth. Treatment modalities vary significantly across these categories, primarily focusing on the inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling phases of burn wound healing. This review summarizes current research on various approaches to enhance burn wound recovery, including advancements in wound dressings, the use of platelet-rich plasma, stem cells, their soluble factors primarily in the form of secretomes or extracellular vesicles, and nano-technologies. Additionally, advancements in modernized traditional medicine are discussed to give a new aspect for burn wound healing. This review also summarizes the barriers in translating bench research to clinical practice in burn wound treatment methods. For an effective translation, researchers and industrial partners should work more closely, while regulatory bodies should streamline the approval procedure.
