From Abstract: These findings may, in part, explain the clinical observa- tions of delayed wound healing or inhibition of wound epithelialization after the use of certain topical silver dressings. Caution should be exercised in using silver- based dressings in clean superficial wounds such as donor sites and superficial burns and also when cultured cells are being applied to wounds.

Interesting. I would not call a donor skin graft site “superficial.” Also, if the hospital is having to use cultured skin cells, that, too, does not seem “superficial.”

Maybe they mean something different by that word when speaking to grafts and such.
