ABSTRACT:
A wound covering for burns, extensive skin wounds, skin lesions or the like, which are subject to contamination by germs, including fungi, and may then become slow healing septic wounds which require a special wound covering and wound treatment. The wound covering may either comprise a plurality of individual elements connected by connecting members into a network, and having, at least on the surface, a layer of ceramic or glass, or it may comprise a base, particularly a mat, web or fabric, provided with glass or ceramic layer. The wound coverings according to the invention are permeable to oxygen and liquids, biocompatible and may also be bioactive.
