METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF BURN WOUND HEALING OUTCOMES Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC G01N21/39 A61B5/00 A61B8/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to combustiology, and discloses a method for prediction of burn wound healing outcomes. Method is characterized by using laser Doppler flowmetry, determining a perfusion index (M) of several areas of burn defects and symmetric intact segments (N) at the stage of burn wound healing and when comparing said perfusion values of each area of burn defects, high probability of developing pathological scars from dermal origin tissues is predicted, high probability of development of pathological cicatricial tissues arising from granulation tissue, or minimal probability of developing pathological cicatrical tissue. Invention can be used for prediction of burn wound healing outcomes, creating conditions for early preventive measures and specialized treatment of burn defects in order to prevent and reduce the probability of developing pathological scars.

EFFECT: method is available to doctors of any specialty, does not require a large number of laboratory and instrumental studies.
