Abstract
While no single method for the local treatment of burns has been found universally satisfactory and acceptable, the technique described by Bunyan (1940) of sealing the affected part in a coated silk envelope and irrigating with electrolytic sodium hypochlorite merits a thorough and critical trial. In the past six months 16 cases have been treated by this means at the London Hospital and 8 by . other methods. Two were caused by electricity; the rest were due to the commoner agents encountered in civil practice and to wartime incendiary bombs. When the burns were multiple, as was often the case, different methods were used on the separate lesions and comparisons made between them.
