title: [Wound management with split skin flaps--donor sites. Covering with the moist gel Geliperm].
abstract: In 23 patients, donor sites of split-thickness skin grafts were treated with Geliperm Hydrogel, a swellable polyacrylamide agar. Healing duration, toleration, exudation and pain were all noted during the daily change of dressing. In 22 of the 23 cases, good healing was obtained after an average of 12.3 days. We feel that Geliperm is excellently suitable for covering the donor sites of split-thickness skin grafts.
