“…Clinical background information included burn characteristics, laboratory conditions, clinical outcomes, drug side effects, and control of hemodynamic status during propranolol administration. Also, the wound was evaluated in terms of how many days after hospitalization the doctor underwent skin graft surgery, the number of debridement surgeries before skin grafting, PTSD symptoms before the start of the intervention during the initial 48 hours and four weeks after hospitalization were assessed by the impact of event scale-revised (IES-R) (23,30).…”

Objective: The hypermetabolic response has undoubtedly evolved to help survive burns, but this physiological response has inconsistent consequences and increases the clinical consequences, such as increased heart work and ultimately its decline, decreased immune system function, risk of sepsis, increased long-term hospitalization, which increases the mortality of patients. This study aims to examine the effect of propranolol on post-traumatic stress disorder and clinical outcomes in burn patients. Methods: This was an open-labeled randomized clinical trial in a single center with two parallel groups without placebo control. Propranolol was given 48 hours after starting of resuscitation. Results: In this study, the burn wound of the patients who used propranolol healed faster. In addition, the administration of propranolol reduced the size of the burning surface, the size of the tissue required skin graft, the rejection rate of skin grafts, and also the length of stay in the hospital. Conclusion: Using propranolol in treating burns can play an influential role in the recovery of burn patients, and reduce the post-traumatic stress disorder.

Background Patients’ recall of memories from the ICU plays an important role in the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorder. This study aimed to determine the effect of nurse-initiated diary intervention on post-traumatic stress disorder and recall of memories in ICU survivors. Methods This RCT study included all patients admitted to two trauma ICUs in Southeast of Iran. Thirty patients considered in control and intervention groups. Data collection tools included the Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R), and the ICU Memory Tool (ICU-MT). The researcher wrote daily diaries of the intervention and control groups during the first 72 h of their admissions. SPSS25 was used to analyze the data. Results The total mean PTSD score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (p > 0.0001, z = -3.75). The number of those in the intervention group who clearly recalled their admission to hospital, their hospital stay before being admitted to the ICU and all memories from the ICU stay, was more than those in the control group; this difference was statistically significant (p > 0.0001). Conclusion The results showed that the nurse-initiated diary was effective on the PTSD and recall clear memories of patients admitted to the ICU. We suggest medical and educational centers to use this intervention in order to reduce the posttraumatic stress disorder in these patients. As nurse-initiated diary intervention had no significant difference in the recall of different types of memories from the ICU, we require further studies in this field.
