Burns 101: Initial Management

Burns 101: Initial Management

From the Burn Center at the University of Washington and Harborview Medical Center, Burns 101 describes the management and care of burn patients. Individual segments describe initial management, triage, burn biology, patient assessments, burn wound care, and operative excision and grafting. Designed for residents, emergency room physicians, and other practitioners caring for burn patients at facilities without a dedicated regional burn center, Burns 101 offers quick, concise treatment guidelines and referral criteria.
