INTRODUCTION Burn injury and its subsequent multisystem effects are commonly encountered by acute care practitioners. Resuscitation is the major component of initial burn care and must be managed to restore and preserve remote organ function. Later complications of burn injury are dominated by infection. Burn centers are often called to manage soft tissue problems outside thermal injury includi...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationships between sex, thermal injury, body size, and inpatient mortality in burn patients. METHODS Medical records of adults with >20% total body surface area (TBSA) burn injury admitted to two American Bur...

Fungal infections are increasingly common in burn patients. We performed this study to determine the incidence and outcomes of fungal cultures in acutely burned patients. Members of the American Burn Association's Multicenter Trials Group were asked to review patients admitted during 2002-2003 who developed one or more cultures positive for fungal organisms. Data on demographics, site(s), speci...

Over the last century electrocautery has emerged as an imperative adjunct to surgery across the entire range of surgical disciplines. A diathermy machine converts electricity of the main supply (240V; 50 Hz) into high frequency current (>100,000 Hz) to minimize the risk of electrical shocks. In monopolar mode, the current from the diathermy enters the patient through the active electrode and ex...
