A regional burn disaster plan for 24 burn centers located in 11 states comprising the Southern Region of the American Burn Association was developed using online and in-person collaboration between burn center directors during a 2-year period. The capabilities and preferences of burn centers in the Southern Region were queried. A website with disaster information, including a map of regional bu...
INTRODUCTION Propranolol, a nonselective β-blocker, exerts an indirect effect on the vasculature by leaving α-adrenergic receptors unopposed, resulting in peripheral vasoconstriction. We have previously shown that propranolol diminishes peripheral blood following burn injury by increasing vascular resistance. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether wound healing and perioperative h...
The development of burn scar contractures is due in part to the replacement of naturally pliable skin with an inadequate quantity and quality of extensible scar tissue. Predilected skin surface areas associated with limb range of motion (ROM) have a tendency to develop burn scar contractures that prevent full joint ROM leading to deformity, impairment, and disability. Previous study has documen...
The adverse sequalae of inadequate pain control in the burn population have been long recognised, yet control of pain remains inadequate globally. The dynamic evolution of burn pain both centrally and peripherally, and the many factors which influence pain perception illustrate the need for a therapeutic plan which is similarly dynamic and flexible enough to cope with the facets of background, ...
BACKGROUND Patient outcomes in specialist burns units have been used as a metric of care needs and quality. Besides patient factors there are service factors that might influence Length of Stay (LOS) and mortality, e.g. pressure on beds. Although the bed needs of UK hospitals have dropped significantly over the past three decades, with changes in policies and practices, recent reports suggest t...
BACKGROUND Burn-trauma patient encounters constitute 5% of the emergency department population. HYPOTHESIS A large urban hospital will treat twice as many (ie, 10%) burn-trauma patients. DESIGN Retrospective 44-month study. SETTING Metropolitan county hospital. PATIENTS Population-based sample of burn-only (n = 1102), burn-trauma (n = 120), and assault burn-trauma (n = 43) patients. M...
background : acinetobacter baumannii has become one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections in recent years. the organism seems to be resistant to most classes of antibiotics. carbapenems are considered the most effective drugs for treatment of these infections. however, increasing emergence of carbapenem resistant a. baumannii has become a major healthcare problem. methods :...
Objectives:Staphylococcus aureus infections in burn patients can lead to serious complications and death. The frequency of S. aureus infection is high in low- and middle-income countries presumably due to limited resources, misuse of antibiotics and poor infection control. The objective of the present study was to apply population genomics to precisely define, for the first time, the transmissi...
Burn patients are particularly exposed to deep-seated nosocomial infections caused by Candida species. Superficial carriage of C. albicans is a potential source of infection and dissemination, and typing methods could be useful to trace the different isolates. We report the use of random amplified polymorphic DNA to type isolates of C. albicans in the Hôpital Cochin burn unit. This molecular ty...
