Author:

Hermans Michel H. E.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Care of burns, particularly those that are deep and/or extensive, requires a very specific approach from a multidisciplinary team of different types of experts. In contrast to many chronic lesions, large burns are also immediately life-threatening and have significant systemic effects that require specialized treatment as well. This article provides a high-level overview of burn care with an emphasis on these burn-specific issues and treatment. GENERAL PURPOSE To review burn care, with an emphasis on burn-specific issues and treatment.
