The effect of anatomic location on porcine models of burn injury and wound healing

Porcine models are frequently used for burn healing studies; however, factors including anatomic location and lack of standardised wound methods can impact the interpretation of wound data. The objectives of this study are to examine the influence of anatomical locations on the uniformity of burn creation and healing in porcine burn models. To optimise burn parameters on dorsal and ventral surfaces, ex vivo and in situ euthanized animals were …
