Brief Summary  
Split thickness skin grafts are now an essential method on the reconstructive ladder and a widely utilized technique for wound reconstruction. Graft donor site wounds create additional challenges due to various morbidities like delayed epithelialization, persistent bleeding, prolonged drainage, pain and scars. Hence care of skin graft donor site is of paramount importance to decrease various morbidities and enhance early wound healing. There is no ideal dressing materials recommended for the care of donor site. Acticoat is a nanocrystalline silver containing dressing material used in the management of various partial and full
thickness wounds. Collagen is a biomaterial that encourages wound healing through deposition and organization of freshly formed fibres and granulation tissue in the wound bed thus creating a good environment for wound healing. To our knowledge, there is no literature comparing the outcome of two modalities and hence our study may provide more insight to this aspect.
The hypothesis for the study is Application of acticoat dressing over split thickness skin graft donor site provide better wound healing than collagen dressing.
