Abstract:
Our aim was to obtain a statistical profile of survivors and deaths among burn victims and to develop predictive models for mortality and length of hospital stay. All patients admitted to the Burns Unit of Alexandria Main University Hospital over a 1-year period were included. Of 533 cases, mean length of hospital stay was 15.5 +/- 21.6 days and the mortality rate was 33%. Total surface area burnt, inhalation burns, age, sex, depth and degree of burn wounds were the significant independent predictors of mortality in multiple logistic regression analysis. The significant independent predictors of the length of hospital stay were clothing ignition, total surface area burnt, sex, degree and depth of burn and inhalation burns.

Abstract:
All burn cases admitted to the burns unit of Alexandria Main University Hospital over a period of one year were investigated. Burns were found to occur in younger age groups. There was an almost equal distribution of cases by sex, but when stratified by age, more females were found in most age groups. Most burns were domestic, with cooking being the most prevalent activity. Flame was the most common agent. Death occurred in about one-third of cases;when using logistic regression analysis, the outcome of the burn injury was significantly associated with age, sex, total surface area burnt and degree and depth of the burn

Abstract:
Background: Burns always have posed a threat to the sensitive human body. It is a common catastrophe today as burn injury cases are one of the common emergencies admitted to any hospital. In a medico-legal setting, the main difficulty arises when a burnt body found in unknown circumstances is brought for post-mortem examination. In such a case, a forensic expert has to opine whether the burn injuries sustained are antemortem or post-mortem. It is also of paramount importance to determine the age of burn injuries sustained. Aging of burn injuries by the naked eye is sometimes difficult and unreliable. By histopathological examination of burnt tissue, one can predict whether the victim was alive or dead when the fire was going on and determine the age of burn injuries. Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was carried out in the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, Pt. B.D.Sharma PGIMS, Rohtak. Total 3033 autopsies were conducted in the mortuary of the Department of Forensic Medicine andToxicology, PGIMS, Rohtak, from November 5, 2011`to November 5, 2013. During that period, out of 486 cases reported burns, randomly 100 cases were selected for this study. Results and Conclusions: In the present study, efforts were made to determine burn wound vitality and age by histopathological evaluation. The study revealed that the inflammatory infiltrate consisted mainly of polymorphonuclear leucocytes in initial stages (up to 3rd-day post-burn) with gradual lymphocytes, macrophages, and fibroblasts forming immature granulation tissue. On the 14th-day post-burn, the burn wound revealed repair by regeneration, increased collagen deposition, fibrosis, and granulation tissue formation. It was infiltrated with fibroblasts, macrophages, and lymphocytes. Our study demonstrated that evaluation of various histopathological changes occurring during the distinctive phases of burn wound healing help in the estimation of its vitality and age.

Abstract:
Burns can be caused by flames, ultraviolet radiation, hot liquids, electricity, lightning and certain chemicals. All burns require immediate first aid treatment. Partial and full thickness burns require urgent medical attention. Full thickness burns often require skin graft surgery. Simple analgesics (such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen) and opioids such as morphine didn’t used in 3rd degree burn because the burnt place is painless. The "Wallace Rule of Nines" is the most common method of determining body surface area. The most commonly used resuscitation formula is the Parkland formula which calculates the amount of fluid required in the first 24 hours.

Abstract:
Every year there was significant number of burn cases during the Lantern (Mid-Autumn) Festival in Hong Kong because children liked to play with fire on that day. They would either burn the lantern or boil the wax from candles in a pot over a fire. When the wax has melted, they poured cold water into it, causing a small explosion with water vapour and wax droplets. Children and adolescents were more common than adults to be burnt by the hot vapour, fire or hot wax. The majority sustained partial thickness burns involving the face. Such burn injuries should be preventable by education and legislation.

Abstract:
In the 2019–2020 Australian bushfires, Kangaroo Island, South Australia, experienced catastrophic bushfires that burnt approximately half the island, with an estimated 80% of the koala population lost. During and after the event, rescued koalas were triaged at a designated facility and a range of initial data were recorded including rescue location and date, sex, estimation of age, body condition and hydration, and assessment of burn severity (n = 304 records available). Koalas were presented to the triage facility over a span of 10 weeks, with 50.2% during the first 14 days of the bushfire response, the majority of which were rescued from regions of lower fire severity. Burns were observed in 67.4% of koalas, with the majority (60.9%) classified as superficial burns, primarily affecting the limbs and face. Poor body condition was recorded in 74.6% of burnt koalas and dehydration in 77.1%. Negative final outcomes (death or euthanasia, at triage or at a later date) occurred in 45.6% of koalas and were significantly associated with higher mean burn score, maximum burn severity, number of body regions burnt, poor body condition score, and dehydration severity. The findings of this retrospective study may assist clinicians in the field with decision making when triaging koalas in future fire rescue efforts.

Abstract:
Aim: To determine major risk factors of mortality and causes of death in patients presented with burn injury. Study design:Prospective Descriptive Study. Setting and duration: Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar,Pakistan from April 2008 and June 2012. Methodology: A prospective descriptive study was performed among the patients whoadmitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan between April 2008 and June2012. All relative information was collected through a detailed proforma and patient’s treatment files. Patients of any age, any degree ofburns and burns exceeding 10% TBSA were included. Patients presenting after more than one week post burn or patients referred fromother hospitals were excluded. Within this period, demographic data, treatment, and outcomes of treatment were reviewed and analyzed.Survivors and non-survivors among burn patients were compared to define the predictive factors of mortality. Results: Between April2008 and June 2012, 1850 patients were admitted with burn injuries. There were 1150 male patients (62%) and 700 female patients(38%). Mean age was 36 years with range of 1-70 years. Inhalation injuries were present in 45 patients (2.40%). Causes were flameburns (65.0%), electrical burns (15%), scalds (13%) and chemical burns (7.0%). The total body surface area (TBSA) burn ranged from10- 100%, with a mean of 38% TBSA burn. Mean length of hospital stay was 12 days (ranging from 24 hours to 170 days). Mortality ratewas 11.2%. Higher age, larger burn area, wound infection, longer hospital stay and the presence of multi-system organ failuresignificantly predicted increased mortality. Conclusions: Prevention is a key factor in reducing the morbidity and mor tality associatedwith burn injury. A campaign to educate people that burns can be prevented will be important in our community. The prevention of multiorganfailure and septicemia are likely to be more effective than their treatment.

Abstract:
The present study examined the hypothesis that hypertonic saline dextran (HSD), given after an initial insult, attenuates exaggerated inflammation that occurs with a second insult. Adult rats ( n = 15 per group) were divided into groups 1 (sham burn), 2 [40% total body surface area burn + 4 ml/kg isotonic saline (IS) + 4 ml·kg−1·% burn−1 lactated Ringer solution (LR)], and 3 (burn + 4 ml/kg HSD + LR), all studied 24 h after burns. Groups 4 (sham burn), 5 (burn + IS + LR), and 6 (burns + HSD + LR) received intratracheal (IT) vehicle 7 days after burns; groups 7 (burn + IS + LR) and 8 (burn + HSD + LR) received IT Streptococcus pneumoniae (4 × 106 colony-forming units) 7 days after burn. Groups 4–8 were studied 8 days after burn and 24 h after IT septic challenge. When compared with sham burn, contractile defects occurred 24 h after burn in IS-treated but not HSD-treated burns. Cardiac inflammatory responses (pg/ml TNF-α) were evident with IS (170 ± 10) but not HSD (45 ± 5) treatment vs. sham treatment (80 ± 15). Pneumonia-related sepsis 8 days after IS-treated burns ( group 7) exacerbated TNF-α responses/contractile dysfunction vs. IS-treated burns in the absence of sepsis ( P < 0.05). Sepsis that occurred after HSD-treated burns ( group 8) had less myocyte TNF-α secretion/better contractile function than IS-treated burns given septic challenge ( group 7, P < 0.05). We conclude that an initial burn injury exacerbates myocardial inflammation/dysfunction occurring with a second insult; giving HSD after the initial insult attenuates myocardial inflammation/dysfunction associated with a second hit, suggesting that HSD reduces postinjury risk for infectious complications.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction Studies on length of stay (LOS) per total body surface area (TBSA) burn in pediatric patients have been performed at single institutions and based on ranges of TBSA burn. A LOS to TBSA burn ratio of 1:1 has also been widely accepted but not confirmed over time across numerous institutions. The objective of this study was to use multi-institutional pediatric burn data to describe benchmarks associated with LOS per TBSA burn. Methods Data from the Pediatric Injury Quality Improvement Collaborative (PIQIC) were obtained for 1004 patients (n=1004) treated at five pediatric burn centers from July 2018-March 2020. LOS/TBSA burn ratios were calculated for each site. LOS/TBSA burn by institution and mechanism were analyzed. Generalized linear regression models were used to model the effect of hospital and burn mechanism on the LOS/TBSA ratio. Results Among the 1004 injuries, the most common burn mechanism was by scald (64%), followed by contact (16%) and flame (13%). The average LOS/TBSA burn ratio across all cases was 1.3 days (SD 2.2). Flame burns had a higher LOS/TBSA burn ratio than scald burns with a mean LOS/TBSA burn of 1.63 compared to 0.84. In adjusted models, scald burns, and chemical burns had the lowest LOS/TBSA burn ratio and electrical and friction burns had the highest LOS/TBSA burn ratio. The LOS/TBSA burn ratio was comparable across hospitals after adjustment for mechanism, with just Hospital 4 having a lower average LOS/TBSA burn of 0.49 days. Conclusions These data establish a multi-institutional ratio for the overall performance in LOS for pediatric burn patients. A LOS per TBSA ratio of about 1 was observed across PIQIC centers, except for a lower ratio at one center. Additionally, it provides evidence on the variance in LOS per TBSA burn relative to the sustained burn mechanism. Further collaborative data analysis will allow us to recognize specific patterns and outcomes in pediatric burn care, which is essential for the implementation of quality improvement standards.

Abstract:
Survival after severe burns has improved in recent decades, but there is limited information on the course of recovery after surviving a burn and on factors that can affect recovery. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the occurrence of physical and psychological problems after burns, and to examine the consequences of psychological problems for the clinical management of burn patients. Three groups of consecutive patients who were treated at the Burn Unit at Uppsala University Hospital between 1980 and 2005 were included in the studies. The Burn Specific Health Scale (BSHS) was used for self-report of burn-specific aspects of health. Personality traits and coping strategies as psychological factors during recovery were examined with the Swedish universities Scales of Personality (SSP) and the Coping with Burns Questionnaire (CBQ). Presence of symptoms of posttraumatic stress were assessed with the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders (SCID-I) was used to determine the concurrent validity of the IES-R as a measure of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Furthermore, the effect of pre-injury psychiatric morbidity on perceived health one year after injury was assessed. Both pruritus and nightmares were common problems after burns; 59% of the individuals in the study reported pruritus and 43% reported nightmares. Neuroticism-related personality traits and avoidant coping strategies were associated with an increased risk of having pruritus or nightmares. The presence of nightmares could be used as a screening tool for high scores in the IES-R. The IES-R was in turn shown to be a good, although overly inclusive, test for the diagnosis of PTSD. Pre-injury psychiatric morbidity predicted perceived outcome in six out of nine burn-specific health domains. These studies show that psychological factors and psychiatric morbidity affect outcome after burns.

Abstract:
In humour studies research, there have been few attempts to elucidate why black humour was such a prevalent, powerful force in late twentieth century culture and why it continues to make a profound impression in the new millennium. As Dana Polan (1991) laments: ???Rarely have there been attempts to offer material, historically specific explanations of particular manifestations of the comic???.1 This thesis offers an interdisciplinary analysis of black humour in the late twentieth century. I contend that the experience of black humour emerges from the intricacies of human beliefs and behaviours surrounding death and through the diverse rituals that shape experiences of loss. I suggest that black humour is an attempt to articulate the tension between the haunting absence and disturbing presence of death in contemporary society. Chapter 1 of this thesis offers an historical and etymological perspective on black humour. In Chapter 2, I argue that the increasing privatisation and medicalisation of death, along with the overt mediatisation of death, creates a problematic juxtaposition. I contend that these unique social conditions created, and continue to foster, an ideal environment for the creation and proliferation of black humour. In Chapters 3 and 4, I examine the structures and functions of black humour through three key theories of humour: incongruity, catharsis and superiority. Chapter 5 looks at ways in which the experience of black humour creates resolutions and forces dissonances for people entwined with loss. In this final chapter, I also consider how black humour may help people make meaning from issues surrounding death. Throughout this theoretical discussion, I interweave the analysis of a range of scenes from contemporary black comic texts (i.e. plays, screenplays and television scripts). On the whole, this thesis works towards a more complex, specific understanding of the phenomenon of black humour within a social context.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the pathological mechanisms occurring in burn wounds responsible for burn wound progression. It utilises histological analyses of porcine burn wound models to identify multiple burn damage markers and their role in causing further tissue damage. A novel method of burn assessment was developed to measure burn intensity, advancing current burn assessment research. The examination of burn wounds at various times post-burn demonstrated that the blockage of blood vessels played a significant role in the progression and intensity of burn depth over time.

Abstract:
The purpose of this historiographical nursing study was to explore Australian Burn Wound Care from a nursing perspective, at two periods of time. It was the intention of the author to explore practices at the inception of specialised burns units, from the 1950's, presenting an historical perspective, and at the present time, May 1995. Eleven burns units across Australia participated in the study. There were 22 participants in the research sample. Each burns unit identified the first Charge Nurse (n =11) and the current Clinical Nurse Specialist (n =11), to be involved in the data collection process. The conceptual framework for this study incorporates the Reflective Cycle (Gibbs, 1988) succinctly incorporating the 'who', 'where', 'why', 'when' and 'what' aspects of the historical method of inquiry. An interview guide, used in conjunction with three photographs depicting burn wounds, provided interview structure for the data collection. A variety of historical data were gathered and analysed. These included scientific medical and nursing texts, foundation minutes, reports and conference papers of Australian and New Zealand Bums Association, to gain perspective of Australian Bum Wound Care. However, the data collated from 1950 to 1996 uncovered no written material on bum wound care. The information available was obtained exclusively from the indepth interviews. The data collated for the current perspective included hospital/ burns unit protocols and indepth interviews with key nursing personnel. A field trip facilitated the data collection, enabling semi-structured, audiotaped interviews in person and the opportunity to visit hospital libraries. The findings of the study have been organised to show bum wound care practices endorsed by Australian burns units, at the inception of specialised facilities, and at the present time.

Lesmana, Brian. "The Role of Androgens in Burn Wound Healing." Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2019. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/21115.

Full text
Abstract:
Background/Objective: Androgens are not currently part of the therapeutic guidelines in burns management. However, oxandrolone, an androgen analogue, has been reported to have significant benefits in burn wound recovery, but there are still concerns regarding its side effect profile. Preliminary studies have identified that the inactivation of androgen receptors (AR) slows wound healing post-burn injury. This finding is opposite to that of experimental evidence for androgens in cutaneous (non-burn) wound healing, on which they exert an inhibitory effect. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the role of androgen signalling in severe, hypermetabolic burn injury both at the local wound and systemic levels. Design: Experimental study. Setting: Research laboratory. Subjects: Male Balb/c mice; wild type (WT) and androgen receptor knockout (ARKO) using Cre/LoxP system. Interventions: 4 cm2 contact burn injury (representing 10% Total Body Surface Area (TBSA)). Main Results: ARKO mice demonstrated slower wound healing and poorer body weight maintenance and recovery. This was associated with preferential activation of white adipose tissue over brown adipose tissue, larger splenic size and smaller hepatic size. There was no difference in local wound inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression between WT and ARKO mice. Conclusions: Androgens play a positive modifying role in wound healing in the context of burn injury, a finding opposite to its reported inhibitory actions in cutaneous wound healing. This is likely resultant from an attenuation of the systemic hypermetabolic response. This contradictory, contextdependent action urges further research into the beneficiary effects of androgens in burns management, particularly its modulation of systemic inflammation and the host immune response.

Abstract:
Burn injuries are one of the most painful and potentially debilitating traumatic injuries that a person can suffer. Every reader is likely to have, at some point in their life, suffered a burn injury, no matter how minor and therefore can have some comprehension of the pain and suffering associated with significant burn injury. Traumatic injury is the leading cause of death and disability in children and young adults. Although much has been done to optimise pre-hospital care and emergent treatment of injuries in recent times, the mainstay of managing death and disability from traumatic injury must lie in preventing these injuries where at all possible. To enable effective preventative strategies to be put in place it is important to define the demographics of those injured and the mechanisms of injury for any given population. Only then can we ensure that strategies are targeted in the areas where they are most needed at the mechanisms that are occurring most commonly. This study has combined a number of data sources namely burns service, fire service, coroners' service and accident and emergency department in an attempt to define the epidemiology and aetiology of burn injury in Greater Manchester. Data from the different sources was pooled and underwent a process of data-linkage to remove duplicate records. Rates have been calculated and compared according to age group, sex group and deprivation status. Poisson regression modelling was used to calculate the rate ratios amongst the different groups. Postcode data was used to allow geographical mapping of injuries across the county to allow rates to be calculated for different areas of the city. Where rates have been calculated for small area geographies Bayesian modelling was used to predict injury rates for those areas. Maps have been produced that show the areas with the highest rates of injury. The results show that in children it is the under five age group that have the highest rates of injury, particularly the under 2's. In adults, those over 75 years of age have the highest rates of injury. For all age groups males were more likely to be injured than females. In both children and adults higher rates of injury were seen in those areas where there were increased levels of deprivation. Key mechanisms of injury for individual age groups have been highlighted. The maps of Greater Manchester and its constituent local authorities show those areas with the highest rates of injury. The definition of target demographic groups and geographical areas within Greater Manchester will be used to allow development of targeted prevention strategies in those areas.

Abstract:
Noninvasive burn depth measurements would allow clinicians to manage burn injury better and improve treatment outcomes. Additionally, knowledge of the burn depth would allow surgeons to excise thermally damaged tissue without harming the underlying healthy tissue which is the source of epithelial cells important for proper healing response. We propose a photoacoustic method for inducing acoustic waves in burns. We used an Nd:YAG laser coupled to an optical fiber probe to deliver laser light to burn injury. Subsequent acoustic wave analysis results in burn depth profiling. We test ex vivo pig skin and optical diffusion theory to extrapolate these measurements to determine the maximum depth determined by this probe. We found that our probe can determine burn depths up to 2.8 mm. We propose changes to extend this depth to about 5 mm, the full thickness of human skin.

Abstract:
Skin thermal burn wounds are classified by depth and require different levels of medical intervention. In this paper, the authors propose a novel treatment method where hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is applied to measure skin burn wound information that guide an additive biomanufacturing process to print a custom engineered skin graft in three dimensions (3D). Two dimensional principle component analysis (2DPCA) for noise reduction is applied to images captured by HSI in the visible wavelength range from 375 nm to 750 nm. A multivariate regression analysis is used to calculate hemodynamic biomarkers of skin burns, specifically the total hemoglobin concentration (tHb) and oxygen saturation (StO2) of the injured tissue. The biomarker results of the skin burn images are mapped spatially to show the burn wound depth distribution. Based on the biomarker values, the burn area is segmented into different sub areas with different burn degrees. Depth profiles of deep burns which require skin grafting are extracted from the burn distribution map. Next, each profile is processed to generate an additive biomanufacturing toolpath with a prescribed internal tissue scaffold structure. Using the toolpath, a 3D printer processes a custom graft from an alginate polymer hydrogel material. Alginate is chosen as the print material since it can be stretched into aligned fibers to create a porous structure that facilitates oxygen and nutrient uptake. The resultant printed construct demonstrates the feasibility of fabricating patient-specific tissues with custom-geometry grafts for treating clinical burns.
