The evidence for application of silver‐containing dressings and topicals in the treatment of partial‐thickness burns in pediatric patients is largely based on clinical trials involving adult patients despite the important differences between the skin of children and adults. A systematic review and meta‐analysis was performed of all randomized controlled trials comparing nonsilver treatment with silver‐containing dressings and silver topical agents in children with partial‐thickness burns in the…

It is found that enzyme alginogel is unlikely to be cost‐effective compared with SSD in the treatment of partial thickness burns and there were no significant differences in quality of life between both treatment groups.

Nanocrystalline silver is a relatively new product with a significant stronger antimicrobial activity compared with older formulations and its long lasting properties reduce dressing change frequency and are probably responsible for the decreased pain and the minor costs experienced.

The use of silver sulphadiazine as a comparator on burn wounds for the full duration of treatment needs to be reconsidered, as a number of studies showed delays in time to wound healing and increased number of dressing applications in patients treated with SSD dressings.
