State of the Art: An Update on Adult Burn Resuscitation

Abstract: Treatment of patients with severe burn injuries is complex, relying on attentive fluid resuscitation, successful management of concomitant injuries, prompt wound assessment and closure, early rehabilitation, and compassionate psychosocial care. The goal of fluid resuscitation is to maintain organ perfusion at the lowest possible physiologic cost. This requires careful, hourly titration of the infusion rate to meet individual patient needs, and no more; the risks of over-resuscitation, such as compartment syndr… Show more

“…Our electronic definition for bleeding severity may have failed to capture patients with critical location bleeding without transfusion, such as intracranial haemorrhage, if this diagnosis was not coded in CIHI‐DAD. Moreover, it is possible that plasma was being utilized for volume expansion explaining why plasma was transfused to patients with normal or without measured INRs [45, 46]; however, guidelines explicitly state not to use plasma for this indication and further studies are required to establish this as an indication [45, 46]. INR values and testing times were extracted from the laboratory information system and hence it is possible that the physician ordering plasma may not have been aware of the INR results at the time of the infusion of the plasma.…”

“…Di queste circa 4.000 necessitano di un ricovero ospedaliero, nel 45% dei casi presso uno dei 17 centri specialistici presenti nel territorio nazionale [1] . Sempre nel nostro paese, le ustioni risultano essere la quarta causa di morte traumatica, e circa il ¾ dei decessi si verificano in ambito extraospedaliero [2] , con mortalità più elevata nei bambini e negli anziani [3] . Quando non fatali rappresentano una delle principali cause di morbilità e degenze ospedaliere prolungate.…”

“…La rianimazione con i fluidi è uno degli interventi prioritari nella gestione precoce dei pazienti ustionati per garantire un'adeguata perfusione degli organi. Infatti, le ustioni estese, quelle che interessano più del 20% della "Total body surface area" (TBSA) ossia della superfice corporea totale negli adulti o più del 10% nei bambini e anziani, possono portare ad una condizione complessa definita shock da ustione [2] . Tale condizione è caratterizzata da: ipovolemia, riduzione della gittata cardiaca sino ad una inadeguata perfusione degli organi terminali.…”
