Invasive fungal infection is one of the major complication of severe burns which can induce local or systemic inflammatory response and cause serious substantial damage to the patient. The incidence of fungal infection for burn victims is increasing dramatically during recent years. This guideline, organized by Chinese Society of Burn Surgeons, aims to standardize the diagnosis, prevention and ...
Despite significant advances in burn care, infection remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in burn patients. We sought to determine accurate infection rates, risk factors for infection, and the percentage of infections caused by resistant organisms. In addition, we attempted to identify interventions to decrease the use of antimicrobial drugs. Data were collected prospectively from 1...
Intubation and mechanical ventilation after burn contribute to pneumonia-related infection. Although postburn presence or absence of endotoxin has been described, inactivation of Toll-like receptor 4 signaling has been shown to improve postburn organ function, suggesting that LPS participates in burn-related susceptibility to infection. We hypothesized that bactericidal/permeability-increasing ...
results scalding was the predominant cause of burns in both categories of patients. in 19 (61.3%) burn wound infection patients, the burns were due to a scald. a significant difference was found for the nesfatin, crp, and wbc levels between the patients and the control group (p = 0.000). a significant difference was also determined between the nesfatin, crp, and wbc figures at the time of hospi...
Gram Negative Wound Infection in Hospitalised Adult Burn Patients-Systematic Review and Metanalysis-
BACKGROUND Gram negative infection is a major determinant of morbidity and survival. Traditional teaching suggests that burn wound infections in different centres are caused by differing sets of causative organisms. This study established whether Gram-negative burn wound isolates associated to clinical wound infection differ between burn centres. METHODS Studies investigating adult hospitalis...
Thermal injury destroys the physical skin barrier that normally prevents invasion of microorganisms. This and concomitant depression of local and systemic host cellular and humoral immune responses are important factors that contribute to colonization and infection of the burn wound. One of the most common burn wound pathogens is Staphylococcus aureus. Staphylococcus aureus is both a human comm...
Approximately 50% of fatal and 15% of nonfatal burn-injured patients have detectable blood alcohol content (BAC) at the time of admission, and it is hypothesized that alcohol exacerbates burn-related immunosuppression. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between BAC and infectious complications in burn patients. The study population consisted of 1161 burn patients admitted...
The survival rates for burn patients have improved substantially in the past few decades due to advances in modern medical care in specialized burn centers. Burn wound infections are one of the most important and potentially serious complications that occur in the acute period following injury. In addition to the nature and extent of the thermal injury influencing infections, the type and quant...
The MIT Faculty has made this article openly available. Please share how this access benefits you. Your story matters. Sepsis remains the major cause of death in patients with major burn injuries. In the present investigation we evaluated the interaction between burn injuries of varying severity and preexisting distant infection. We used Gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Proteu...
UNLABELLED C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin(PCT) levels may distinguish between a systemic inflammatory response and an infection in burn children. OBJECTIVES To establish the operative capability of CRP and PCT to diagnose infections and mortality. METHODS Burn patients admitted to the hospital with clinical suspicion of an infection were included. CRP and PCT were measured and t...
