  • Title: How to manage burns in primary care.
    Author: Waitzman AA, Neligan PC.
    Journal: Can Fam Physician; 1993 Nov; 39():2394-400. PubMed ID: 8268745.
    Abstract:
    Burns are common injuries; more than 200,000 occur in Canada annually. Nearly all burn injuries can be managed on on outpatient basis. Appropriate treatment depends on burn depth, extent, and location. Special types of burns, such as chemical, tar, and electrical injuries, need specific management strategies. Prevention through education is important to reduce the incidence of burns.
