  • Title: Pathophysiological basis of burn management.
    Author: Shaw A, Anderson J, Hayward A, Parkhouse N.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; ; 52(11):583-7. PubMed ID: 7719581.
    Abstract:
    Despite increased public awareness of the dangers of fire, burns remain a part of everyday life. Most accident departments will see one or more burn victims each day and, although not common, major burns still occur. In this and a second article we review the pathophysiology of thermal injury and describe the early treatment of a major burn victim.
