Introducción: Las quemaduras de espesor parcial requieren una cobertura que favorezca la reepitelización. Objetivo: Describir la evolución clínica de adultos con quemaduras de espesor parcial tratados con un apósito de nanocelulosa. Métodos: Serie prospectiva, descriptiva y de un solo grupo en la consulta de quemados del Hospital General Provincial “Camilo Cienfuegos”, Sancti Spíritus, entre enero de 2022 y enero de 2025. Se incluyeron 30 adultos con quemaduras AB y ≤10 % de superficie corporal quemada. Se describieron cicatrización, dolor, cicatriz y satisfacción. Resultados: Veintiún pacientes (70,0 %) cicatrizaron entre 8 y 14 días y seis (20,0 %) en ≤7 días. El dolor fue leve en 20 pacientes (66,7 %). A los 90 días, 26 (86,7 %) tuvieron categoría de cicatriz “buena” y 29 (96,7 %) se declararon satisfechos o muy satisfechos. Se notificó una infección local. Conclusiones: La cohorte mostró evolución favorable; la falta de comparador impide estimar efectividad relativa o atribuir los desenlaces al apósito.

Introduction: Partial-thickness burns require wound coverage that protects the wound and supports re-epithelialization. Objective: To describe the clinical course of adults with partial-thickness burns treated with a nanocellulose dressing. Methods: A prospective, descriptive, single-group case series was conducted at the burn outpatient clinic of the Camilo Cienfuegos Provincial General Hospital, Sancti Spíritus, from January 2022 to January 2025. Thirty adults with AB-type burns and ≤10% total body surface area burned were included. Healing time, visual analogue scale pain, scar quality, and satisfaction were described. Results: Twenty-one patients (70.0%) healed within 8–14 days, and six (20.0%) within ≤7 days. Pain was mild in 20 patients (66.7%). At 90 days, 26 patients (86.7%) had the “good” scar category recorded, and 29 (96.7%) were satisfied or very satisfied. One local infection was reported. Conclusions: The selected cohort showed a favorable clinical course. The lack of a comparator group precludes estimating relative effectiveness or attributing outcomes solely to the dressing.
