Insights
RECELL system shows remarkable 36% shorter hospital stays, $42,000 savings per patient, and increased hospital efficiency in burn treatment.
The real-world data from the U.S. national burn registry demonstrates compelling economic benefits for AVITA Medical's RECELL System. The 36% reduction in hospital length of stay (LOS) translates to approximately
This analysis involved a matched cohort of 741 adult patients, with 247 receiving RECELL treatment and 494 receiving traditional split-thickness skin grafts. The 5.6-day reduction in hospitalization is statistically significant (p < 0.0001) and represents meaningful clinical improvement.
Beyond direct cost savings, the operational efficiency gains are noteworthy. Hospitals could potentially treat 13 additional patients annually per bed using RECELL versus traditional methods. This throughput improvement is particularly valuable given that U.S. burn cases consumed over 110,000 ICU days in 2023, costing more than
The clinical advantages of RECELL requiring
From a clinical perspective, these findings represent a significant advancement in burn care. The 36% reduction in hospital stay isn't just an economic metric—it signifies substantially faster healing and recovery for patients with deep partial thickness burns.
The registry data is particularly valuable because it reflects real-world outcomes rather than controlled trial conditions. The matched analysis methodology (247 RECELL patients vs. 494 STSG patients) strengthens the validity of these findings by controlling for potential confounding variables.
Most telling is the higher proportion of RECELL-treated patients discharged directly home, indicating better overall recovery trajectories. This suggests patients experience improved functional outcomes that enable them to bypass extended rehabilitation settings.
The technical advantages of RECELL—creating an autologous skin cell suspension requiring
For a burn unit managing multiple patients with varying burn severities, these benefits compound. Reduced length of stay means decreased risk of hospital-acquired complications, lower pain medication requirements, earlier mobilization, and potentially better long-term psychological outcomes for patients—all critical factors in comprehensive burn care that go beyond the economic advantages.

Victoria Miles, EMTP, MD, of Louisiana State University Health and Sciences Center, presented the results of this research today at the 2025 European Burn Association Congress in Berlin, Germany: “These findings support the role of RECELL as a clinically validated, cost-effective option in modern burn management, and highlight the impact on patient outcomes, hospital efficiency, and resource utilization.”
RECELL harnesses the regenerative properties of a patient’s own skin to create an autologous skin cell suspension autograft, enabling clinicians to deliver a transformative solution at the point of care. In a matched analysis of 741 adults from the Burn Care Quality Platform registry, patients treated with RECELL (n=247) experienced an average 5.6-day reduction in hospital LOS, a
The reduction in LOS achieved upon the use of RECELL is not only clinically meaningful but also economically impactful. Based on an estimated average daily inpatient bed cost of
Amid a growing need to reduce the burden of burn care on hospital systems, the study’s findings are particularly compelling. In 2023 alone, U.S. burn cases consumed more than 110,000 ICU days, costing in excess of US
