What is Managing Burn Injuries in Patients about?
Burn injuries cause cell destruction in the skin layers and depletion of fluids and electrolytes. Small burns have a localized response while large burns over 25% of total body surface area have a systemic response affecting major body systems. Burn management involves fluid resuscitation, pain relief, infection prevention, nutrition, stress ulcer prevention, and psychological support. The emergent phase focuses on preventing shock while the resuscitative phase begins fluid resuscitation.
