The use of Bactroban for infection management in burn patients.
The paper summarizes experience with the application of Bactroban which was used for local antimicrobial treatment in 25 patients at the Burn Centre of the Department of Plastic Surgery, Prague. Various types of deep skin layers with mixed infection were chosen for this therapy, mostly due to Staphylococcus, even though a resistant Staphylococcus never occurred during the testing period. Bactroban was applied in cases where commonly used preparations had failed, and its therapeutical results can be considered positive.
