title: [Medical properties of the membrane dressing made of bacterial cellulose].
abstract: Review of papers devoted to medical properties of membrane dressing made of bacterial cellulose was done. These properties were determined on the basis of studies on application of this membrane to venous leg ulcer healing. Moreover, quantitative method of valuation of wound healing process efficiency which lies in calculating efficiency coefficient was described. Value of this coefficient is directly proportional to ulcer healing speed and indirectly proportional to product of initial surface and healing time.
