Moisture-vapour-permeable film as an outpatient burn dressing . This study compares a moisture-vapour-permeable film ( MVPF ) with silver sulphadiazine in a randomized prospective manner for the treatment of outpatient burns . The two treatment groups were closely matched in age , sex , per cent of BSA burned , and in burn severity and locations . The MVPF group demonstrated a 39.0 per cent greater reduction in pain after application of the dressing over the silver sulphadiazine group . Patients in the MVPF film group also reported significantly less difficulty in wound care and in dressing interference with their daily functions . The clinical infection rate and time to healing were similar in both groups . In the management of outpatient burns , MVPF was found to be superior to silver sulphadiazine .
