The Japanese Society for Burn Injuries (JSBI) published the third edition of guidelines to present the standard of care for inpatient treatment of burn injuries in Japan.

We think it is important to share these guidelines with other countries to work toward a consensus of burn care, then develop new research to establish evidence for burn care and treatment in the future.
