Burn wound healing and treatment: review and advancements

TL;DR: Recent advancements in the care of burn patients with a focus on the pathophysiology and treatment of burn wounds are reviewed, including improvements in patient stabilization and care.
Journal ArticleDOI

American Burn Association practice guidelines burn shock resuscitation.

TL;DR: There are insufficient data to support a treatment standard treatment at this time, and the addition of colloid-containing fluid following burn injury, especially after the first 12 to 24 hours postburn, may decrease overall fluid requirements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnosis and management of inhalation injury: an updated review

TL;DR: The development of a grading system and the use of modalities such as chest computed tomography may allow for a more nuanced evaluation of inhalation injury and enhanced ability to prognosticate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of infections associated with combat-related extremity injuries.

TL;DR: An evidence-based medicine review of military and civilian extremity trauma data used to support the Guidelines for the Prevention of Infections Associated With Combat-Related Injuries: 2011 Update, and addresses adjuvants that are increasingly being examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting increased fluid requirements during the resuscitation of thermally injured patients.
