Ysu Nurs 3749 Poster - Recell

The document summarizes research on ReCell therapy compared to traditional skin grafting. It finds that ReCell decreases donor grafting site requirements and scarring for both trauma and donor sites. It also reduces recovery time and costs associated with multiple grafting procedures. ReCell has been shown to allow burns to heal faster and better with less pain compared to normal skin grafts. The creation of ReCell was originally intended for burn victims but has shown promise in treating vitiligo.
