Abstract

Electrical injuries are a serious problem around the world. Patients with extensive, high-voltage electric burns belong to the group of severely burned. Timely and adequate treatment, which includes intensive anti-shock measures in the first days after injury, with simultaneous active surgical tactics, is decisive for saving life for such victims. The provision of specialized, high-tech medical care for these complex patients is optimal in conditions of a burn department / center of a multidisciplinary medical organization. However, knowledge of the basic principles of providing emergency and urgent medical care to victims with electrical trauma even before admission to the burn hospital is the key to their further successful treatment.
