Integra artificial skin was applied on 16% of TBSA after necrectomy on a 7-month-old girl who was scalded on 26% of TBSA by her mother when she was cooking goulash. Nutritional parameters were monitored during the period of 25 days from the 1st necrectomy and application of Integra up to the first autotransplantation--in the period when the other burnt surfaces were almost healed. The average intake of proteins and energy to achieve normal levels of monitored nutritional parameters was lower than that recommended by calculations for similarly burnt children. Our observation is similar to that of King.
