BURN DEPTH
Classification of Burn Depth
“First-Degree”a. Involves injury to epidermal layer
b. Erythema (pink to red) c. Skin blanches absence
of blistersd. Painful with tingling
sensation, pain is eased by
coolinge. Discomfort lasts 48 hrs healing occurs 3 to 5
daysf. No scarring; intact skin
Classification of Burn Depth
“First-Degree”
2. Superficial partial-thickness burna. Involves injury to the epidermis
and the superficial layers of the dermis
b. Large blisters may cover an extensive area
c. Pink to red base and broken epidermis, with wet,
shiny and weeping surface d. Excruciating Pain e. Heals in 10 to 21 days f. Some scarring and minor pigment changes may occur
2 degree BURN DEPTHSuperficial partial – thckness burn
2 degree BURN DEPTHSuperficial partial – thckness burn
2 degree BURN DEPTHDeep partial – thckness burn
3. Deep partial-thickness burn
a. Involves injury of most of the dermal layer
b. Pain is reduced
c. Wound surface is red and dry with white areas in deeper parts, no blisters
d. Generally heals in 3-6 weeks
e. Scar formation
2 degree BURN DEPTHDeep partial – thckness burn
Second degree BURN DEPTH
Superficial partial-thickness:•Usually quite painful •Erythemetous with blebs and bullae
•Even air motion across skin hurts
Deep partial-thickness:• Sensation impaired to a variable degree
Second degree BURN DEPTH
Classification of Burn Depth“third-Degree”
4. Full -thickness burna. Involves injury and destruction of the epidermis and the dermis, the wound will not heal by re-epithelialization and grafting may be requiredb. Appears dry, hard, leathery eschar c. Appears as a waxy white, deep red, yellow, brown, or blackd. Absence of sensation because of nerve ending destructione. Scarring and wound contractures are likely to develop without preventive measures
Classification of Burn Depth“fourth-Degree”
5. Deep full-thickness burn (subcutaneous)
a. Extends beyond the skin into underlying fascia and tissues and damage to the muscle, bone, and tendons occurs
b. Injured area appears black and sensation is completely absent
c. Eschar is hard and inelastic
d. Healing time takes months and grafts are required

BURN LOCATION1. Burns of the head, neck, and
chest are associated with pulmonary
complications2. Burns of the face are associated with corneal abrasion3. Burns of the ear are associated with auricular chondritis4. Hands and joints require intensive therapy to prevent disability5. The perineal area is prone to autocontamination by urine and feces6. Circumferential burns of the extremities can produce a tourniquet-like effect and lead to vascular compromise (compartment syndrome)7. Circumferential thorax burns lead to inadequate chest wall expansion and pulmonary sufficiency
Type of BURN
A. Thermal burns are caused by exposure to flames, hot liquids, steam, or hot objects Inhalation Injury ???
B. Chemical burns1. Burns are caused by
tissue contact with strong acids, alkalis, or organic compounds
2. Systemic toxicity from cutaneous absorption can occur
3. Deep partial-thickness injuries
Type of BURN C. Electrical burns1. Burns are caused by heat generated by electrical energy as it passes through the body 2. Electrical burns result in internal tissue damage3. Cutaneous burns cause muscle and soft tissue damage that may be extensive, particularly in high-voltage electric injuries 4. The voltage, type of current, contact site, and duration of contact are important to identify5. Alternating current is more dangerous than direct current because it is associated with cardiopulmonary arrest, ventricular fibrillation, tetenic muscle contrations, and long bone or vertebral fractures6. Subcutaneous (Fourth Degree)
D. Radiation burns are caused by exposure to ultraviolet light, x-rays or radioactivity (superficial burn = sunburn )
INHALATION INJURIES
Smoke inhalation injury1. Description: Injury results when the
victim is trapped in an enclosed, hot, smoke-filled space.
2. Assessment:a. Facial burnsb. Erythemac. Swelling of oropharynx and nasopharynxd. Singed nasal hairse. Flaring nostrilsf. Stridor, wheezing, and dyspneag. Hoarse voiceh. Sooty (carbonaceous) sputum and coughi. Tachycardiaj. Agitation and anxiety
Carbon monoxide poisoning1. Desciptiona. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that has an affinity for hemoglobin 200 times than that of oxygenb. Oxygen molecules are displace and carbon monoxide reversibly binds to hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobinc. Tissue hypoxia occurs
Mild: headache, nauseaModerate: dizziness, confusion,
ataxia, visual changes, pallorSevere: dysrhythmias, coma,
cherry red buccal membrane, cherry-red cast to skin
Signs of Carboxyhaemoglobinaemia
COHb levels Symptoms
0-10% Minimal (normal level in heavy smokers)
10-20% Nausea, headache
20-30% Drowsiness, lethargy
30-40% Confusion, agitation
40 -50% Coma, respiratory depression
>50% Death
QUESTIONS ?
What assessment of the patient would you make?
Discuss airway assessment, The significance of perform SaO2
and other investigations you would perform (COHb).
What are the indications for intubations.
What fluid requirements will patients have ?
What fluid would you give, when you give, and why ?
Discuss analgesia, are burns painful ?
Where should the patient be looked after ?
Step 1: Initial Assessment
Airway: does the patient have a patent airway?Breathing: is the patient breathing adequately?Circulation: Is the patient’s circulatory and cardiac status stable?Neurological status: EVMNote: burns do NOT alter mentation—if the patient is un-alert or disoriented, something else is going on! Expose the patient, and treat for hypothermia
Step 2: Determining Burn Severity
•Burn severity is determined primarily by assessing the extent of the burn as percentage of total body surface area, and its depth•‘Partial/full thickness’ and ‘1st/2nd/3rd degree’ are acceptable terminology•First and second degree burns are partial thickness burns•Third degree burns are full thickness burns
Fluid Resuscitation• Parkland formula
– 4cc X weight X % burn– ½ volume in first 8 hours– Second ½ over last 16 hours
• Brooke formula– 2cc X weight X % burn– ½ volume in first 8 hours– Second ½ over last 16 hours
• Daily maintenance fluids
Fluid Resuscitation
End point Urine outputin adults 0.5-1.0 ml/kg/hour
in children 1.0-1.5 ml/kg/hour
Stages of Thermal Injuries
1st Stage – Edema
2nd Stage – Diuresis
1st Stage – Edema
First 24 hoursFluid leak: vascular space interstitial space
osmotic pressure capillary permeabilityVasoactive substances released
interstitial edema and intravascular hypovolemia occurs
1st Stage – Edema
Burns >30% BSA cause capillary changes in both burned and non-burned tissue
Burned tissue edemaDirect thermal injury to endothelial cells and burn tissue osmolarity
Non-burn tissue edema Severe hypoproteinemia
Small woundEdema greatest 8-12 hrs post injury
Large woundEdema greatest 18-24 hrs post injury
2nd Stage – Diuresis
24-36 hours after burn, fluid and electrolytes begin to remobilize back into intravascular spaceCapillary seal reestablishesDiuresis occurs due to GFR in response to intravascular volumeMay see hypernatremia and hypokalemiaCardiac output may 200-300% normal

CardioVascular System (first 24 hrs)
Activation of CNS system and catecholamine release:
TachycardiaVasoconstriction
During early phase:Classic S/S of compensated shockDramatic decrease in cardiac output
Volume loss and decreased venous return:
preload cardiac filling pressure CVP and PCWP
After 24hrs = increased blood flow to tissues, HTN
Immune and hemtolpgic system
Immune SystemAlters immune cells ability to function killing power of neutrophilsMacrophages and lymphocytes do not work well
Hematologic SystemDestruction of RBCsHemoglobinuria Hgb level viscosity WBC level Coagulation altered
Endocrine and neurological system
Endocrine SystemMassive release of catecholamines, glucagon, ACTH, ADH, Renin, Angiotensin, & Aldosterone
Hyperglycemia
Neurological System cerebral perfusionCerebral edema occurs from Na shiftsCarbon monoxide or associated head injury may cause neuro changes
Respiratory System
Upper airway injuryInvolves all of airway to level of true vocal cordsInitially due to inflammation from heat of inspired smokeExacerbated by accumulation of excess interstitial fluid
Major airway injuriesInvolves trachea and bronchi
Parenchymal injuryInvolves entire respiratory tract down to, and including, alveolar membraneCommonly lethal within first few hours after injury due to profound bronchospasms and hypoxia

GI and hepatic System
GI SystemSlow peristalsis and possible ileus HCL acid secretion from stress responseNarcotics for pain management further slow peristalsis
Hepatic SystemDecreased hepatic synthesisDecreased metabolic function
Induction Medications
- Burn patients require higher than normal doses of non depolarizing muscle relaxants dueto altered protein binding and increase in extrajunctional acetylcholine receptors.
Muscle Relaxants
Depolarizers– safe in the 1st 24hrs (afterwhich hyperkalemia may be a problem up to a year or the burn is healed)
Non-depolarizers – burn patient’s tend to be resistant to the effects of non-depolarizing muscle relaxants
May need 2-5 x’s the normal dose!!!
Common Operations
- Decompression procedures
escharotomies & fasciotomies
- Burn excision & skin grafting- Reconstruction operations- Supportive procedures
tracheostomy, gastrostomy, vascular access
Review – Anesthetic Management
Preop MedsProvide adequate analgesiaFluids
Establish Adequate Vascular Access
Consider Invasive Monitoring
