This review covers the physiology of thermal injury and pathophysiology of burn wounds in terms of burn wound healing, wound infection, and strategies for controlling and preventing infection. Emerging trends relevant to wounds, such as the development of novel extrudable gel-forming bioabsorbable liquids, and tissue engineering are briefly discussed.
