Abstract
- The use of sterile surgical gloves in wound dressing is not new. It has been used previously in dressing of fresh wounds and in adjunct to the negative pressure wound management. Herein we describe an interesting case of burn wound dressing of hand in a child. Low cost, easy availability, better patient compliance and lesser chances of wound infection are special attributes of glove dressing.
