Washington Hospital Center
• Located in Northwest DC– Areas largest

![Page 6: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Code Orange: This is not a drill!
• Medical response– 8 trauma surgeons– 6 trauma residents– 7 intensivists and
their teams– All others
• Anesthesia, lab, blood bank, radiology, RT, security
![Page 7: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Patients begin to arrive
• 3 patients in first 30 minutes– 1 smoke only, 2
burns
• Then all air traffic grounded– 4 more by ground

Medics - Electrical
• Do not become victim– Turn off power
• Initiate CPR– If < 1000 volt,
ventricular fibrillation– If > 1000 volt, cardiac
standstill and respiratory paralysis
![Page 18: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Medics - Chemical
• Remove involved clothing• Flush with water• Flush with more water• Then flush with more water• When you think you are done, flush
with more water• NO NEUTRALIZATION
![Page 19: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Cold
• DOES NOT– Reverse temperature– Inhibit destruction– Prevent edema
• DOES– Delay edema– Reduce pain
![Page 20: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Medic evaluation
• Airway– Moving air, moaning, unresponsive,
entire head, face, neck, and chest burned
![Page 22: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

IV access
• < 15% TBSA – oral resuscitation• 15 – 40% TBSA – one large bore IV• > 40% -- two large bore IV’s• IV’s should be in the upper
extremities• Suture IV’s started through burns
![Page 33: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Crystalloid solution
• Ringer’s Lactate– [Na+] 130 mEq (serum 140 mEq)– Osmolality 272 mOsm (serum
300mOsm)• Advantages of crystalloid
– Effective in maintaining perfusion– Costs less than colloids– Can be mobilized with a diuretic
![Page 35: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Resuscitation first 24 hours
• Baxter formula– 4 mL/kg/% TBSA burned
• Give ½ the volume in first 8 hours and other ½ over next 16 hours.
![Page 36: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
If < 20kg
• Same Baxter formula for LR
• Add 4mL/kg of D5 ¼ NS– Infuse at constant
rate, increase LR if needed for adequate urine output
![Page 37: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Monitor urine output• Place foley if > 20% TBSA• Urine output goal
– 2 mL/kg/hr very young– 1 mL/kg/hr child– 0.5 mL/kg/hr adult
• Diuretics are NEVER used to increase urine output
• Increase urine output to > 100mL/hr if pigment present
![Page 39: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Escharotomies
• Only for leathery, circumferential, full-thickness burns
• Rarely needed in transport < 12 hours• Almost always done at the Burn Center• Emergent indications:
– Unable to ventilate– Pulseless, painful extremity
![Page 43: Initial Burn Care Lee D. Faucher, MD FACS Director UW Burn Center Professor of Surgery & Pediatrics.](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5697c0091a28abf838cc751d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

• Can cover with plastic wrap• Transport patient in DRY sheet and
blanket• If transport delayed > 12 hours,
– Debride loose tissue and clean with mild soap and water
– Apply Silver Sulfadiazine and wrap loosely

Resuscitation 24 - 48 hours
• Continue maintenance fluids, watch serum Na+
• May use albumin or plasma for volume– Infuse 5 – 10mL/kg as needed
• Maintain adequate urine output

• An acute burn may not be completely blistered
• Can’t do wound care in clinic• Sedation easier when adequate pain
control
