All 15 patients who received ESS survived;
Mortality in this ESS study was 6.25%, as compared to a 30.3% mortality rate for a comparable population from the National Burn Repository (P < .05), indicating that ESS may potentially reduce mortality by over 75% in this pediatric patient population;
These results indicate that autologous ESSs reduce mortality and requirements for donor skin harvesting, for grafting of full-thickness burns of greater than 50% TBSA.
