Burn injuries can trigger a series of metabolic and catabolic responses that exert significant impacts on an individual’s nutritional status, necessitating continuous nutritional support and education to aid recovery. However, burn units in dev...
Nitrous oxide has a wide range of medical applications, such as being used as an analgesic in general anesthesia, dental procedures, childbirth and sedation. Lately, it has also been employed as an inhalant recreational drug to induce brief euphoria....
The gold standards for coverage of wounds that cannot be primarily closed are full thickness skin grafts (FTSGs) and split thickness skins graft (STSGs). FTSGs harvest sites generally require primary closure, which limits availability, especially whe...
The most common aftereffect of severe burns in patients is hypertrophic scarring. Hypertrophic scars typically form following severe burns; it refers to excessive collagen production in the dermal layer during the healing process, resulting in an abn...
The association between hypothermia and poor outcomes in severe burn injury is well established. However, the significance of the core-peripheral temperature gradient has not previously been investigated. Institutional guidance at our burns centre ad...
Background: Assessing hypertrophic scar (HTS) interventions is challenging because scars continue to undergo dynamic changes. A split-scar design can distinguish treatment effects from natural HTS evolution. Despite promising reports of ablative frac...
Burns significantly impact children’s physical and psychosocial recovery, even in cases of non-severe injuries, leading to long-term health and mental health risks. This study explores the psychosocial benefits of a community-based exercise pro...
Background: In 1994, the first Spanish study on patients with self-inflicted burns (SIB) was published, showing a prototypical profile of a patient with SIB: adult male, unmarried and, in 75% of the cases, with a psychiatric background. In addition,...
Introduction: Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) combined with an augmented model-based data processing enables the measurement of the depth-resolved perfusion of burn wounds. With these methods, the fundamental problem of the wound dynamics (wound conversi...
