Differences between protocol and review

We have added 'promoting healing' to the objective, indicating that the wound is not infected. Therefore the primary outcomes have been changed accordingly. A priori we did not identify time to grafting as an outcome, but in severe burns the goal is to prevent infection by grafting the wound as soon as possible. Therefore we have added time to grafting as it is a subjective indication of healing in the sense that the wound has become clean and is granulating, and thus ready for secondary closure. Study selection was based on one of these primary outcomes. Duration of wound infection was deleted, because this endpoint suggests treating an infected wound rather than preventing infection.

We planned to conduct subgroup analysis for each wound type. Due to the few studies identified for wound types other than burns, we categorised these wounds as acute, chronic or mixed wounds in order to evaluate the studies.

The search strategy was refined after consulting the Wounds Group Trial Search Co‐ordinator.
