Abstract
Oxidative stress is an inherent pathophysiological feature in burn wound healing. Severe burns trigger rapid changes in patients' conditions, leading to ischemia-reperfusion injury from early fluid resuscitation, neuroendocrine stress, and fluid imbalances, which exacerbate oxidative damage and organ dysfunction. This review highlights the critical role of oxidative stress in post-burn wound healing, its potential to cause cellular and tissue damage, and oxidative stress mechanisms. Antioxidant therapy is recommended as a cost-effective method of modulating inflammation and burn outcome. Preparative measures of successful antioxidant therapy should be developed in improving burn patients' wound healing.
