Creation of optimal conditions for the fastest autoplastic closure of a burn wound in thermal lesions, as it is rightly emphasized in many works, is one of the main principles of treatment of the injured [2,3]. Thus, the goal is to minimize the adverse manifestations of burn disease, especially in the periods of toxemia and septic toxemia, to avoid a number of serious complications, to ensure faster and better wound healing without the development of deforming scars and contractures. After removing the patient from the state of shock in deep burns the important role belongs to timely necrectomy. With this tactic it is possible to clean the wound from necrotic tissues before purulent-demarcating inflammation develops in it and thus reduce the treatment period.
