Abstract
Background: Infection is the leading cause of death after thermal injury. Optimal prevention and treatment of
burn wound infection is enabled by an in-depth understanding of burn wound treatment modalities not only
from a technical standpoint, but also from the standpoint of the clinical context in which these modalities
were originally developed.
Methods: A review of the historical literature on the topical antimicrobial care of burn wounds was
performed. Results: As our understanding of post-burn infection evolved, and as new products were
developed for the prevention of post-burn wound infection, major advances in post-burn survival occurred.
Ultimately, improve- ments in anesthetic, surgical, and critical care management have permitted early

excision and grafting of the burn wound, decreasing but not eliminating the importance of topical
antimicrobial care, and shifting much of the burden of wound infection prevention to the post-operative
period.
Conclusions: The development of effective topical antimicrobial agents for wound care was, arguably, the
single most important advance in the care of the burn patient. Still, many gaps in our ability to treat
complicated burn wounds remain. Fungal infection is an unusual but daunting challenge. Patients with
impaired wound healing and those with advanced age or medical comorbidities may not benefit from early
excision, and the benefits of early excision may not be available in austere or remote locations. For these
reasons, research on optimal topical treatment continues.
