This study examines the effect of bromelain-based enzymatic debridement using NexoBrid(R) gel on the microbiological pattern of burn wounds, and finds that it is similar to cases treated without enzymatic debridement.
The antimicrobial properties of bromelain have been previously studied. However, the effect of enzymatic debridement on bacterial colonisation in burn wounds was not de-scribed in literature. In this study, we examine whether bromelain-based enzymatic deb-ridement using NexoBrid (R) gel alters the microbiological pattern of burn wounds. Bacterial emergences in burn wounds that were enzymatically debrided at Pinderfields Regional Burns Centre, between July 2016 and February 2019, were studied and compared to the bacterial profile of burn wounds that were managed either by surgical debridement or dressings only during the same period. Our results showed that the microbial profile of burn wounds treated with NexoBrid (R) is similar to what is widely reported in cases treated without enzymatic debridement, at all stages of wound healing. This particularly showed in the predominance of Gram-positive organisms in the first week and Gram-negative in the second week. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI. All rights reserved.
