Background and objectives: Despite advances, inappropriate analgesic treatment for burn patients is still seen. The objective of this review was to collect data on pain management in burn patients.
Content:We reviewed the mechanisms of pain, burn patient assessment, as well as pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment. Conclusion: Pain management in burn patients is still a challenge for the multidisciplinary team. Frequent and continuous evaluation of the patient's response is very important due to the various stages that the hospitalized burn patient goes through, as well as a combination therapy with analgesic and non-pharmacological measures. Understanding the complexity of the pathophysiological, psychological, and biochemical changes a burn patient presents is the fi rst step to achieve success in analgesic management.

RESUMOO pseudomixoma peritoneal (PMP) é um carcinoma de baixo grau de malignidade, frequentemente relacionado a neoplasias epiteliais de apêndice e ovário. O PMP apresenta melhora da sobrevida em cinco anos quando tratado com cirurgia citorredutora (CCR) associada a quimioterapia hipertérmica intraperitoneal (QtHIP), em comparação ao tratamento com quimioterapia sistêmica isolada. Paciente masculino, 35 anos, com dor na fossa ilíaca direita nos últimos 2 anos. Foi submetido a apendicectomia videolaparoscópica cujo anatomopatológico diagnosticou pseudomixoma peritoneal. Foi, então, submetido à cirurgia citorredutora temperatura corporal e da glicemia capilar, recebendo o devido manejo clínico. No pós-operatório, evoluiu com quadro infeccioso e foi tratado para coleção abdominal presumida. Recebeu alta hospitalar após 23 dias de internação.

ABSTRACTPeritoneal pseudomyxoma (PPM) is a low malignancy carcinoma, often related to epithelial neoplasms of the appendix and intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) compared to standard systemic chemotherapy. Male patient, 35 years old, with right pseudomyxoma. He was then subjected to cytoreductive surgery associated with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.managed. Postoperative evolved with signs of infection which was treated for presumed abdominal collection. The pacient was discharged from hospital after 23 days of hospitalization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
