This paper outlines the validation of the CARe Burn Scale: Parent/Caregiver Form, a PROM that measures quality of life in parents/caregivers supporting a child with a burn injury. A literature review and interviews with sixteen parents and six burns health professionals informed the development of the PROM conceptual framework/draft form. Cognitive debriefing interviews with five parents and seven burns-specialist health professionals provided feedback to ascertain content validity, and two-hundred and four parents/caregivers took part in the field testing. Rasch measurement theory (RMT) analyses and internal consistency tests were conducted to create a shortened version and for psychometric validation. The final conceptual framework included eight domains/individual scales: Physical Well-being, Confidence with Managing Burn Wound/Scar Treatments, Social Situations, Partner Relationship, Self-worth, Negative Mood, Parent Concerns about the Appearance of their Child's Burn Wounds/Scars, and Positive Growth. Seven scales had solutions from RMT analyses and passed internal consistency criteria. Confidence with Managing Burn Wound/Scar Treatments did not fit the Rasch model but was retained as a checklist based on theoretical insight. The CARe Burn Scale: Parent/Caregiver Form is the first and only burn-specific PROM that assesses parents' own health needs when caring for a child with a burn.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12101224/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144129669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electrical stimulation (ES) reduces healing time in chronic wounds; however, its reported use on acute burn wounds is limited. This systematic review (SR) aimed to evaluate the relative benefit of ES compared to routine wound care on the healing time of acute burn wounds in adults. The online databases queried included Cochrane Database of SR's, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PUBMED and CINAHL. The search criteria included RCTs involving the application of ES of varying voltage, duration and modality in acute burn patients aged ≥18 years. The primary outcome investigated was days to burn wound closure, while the secondary outcomes included edema and infection. Four RCTs were discovered, involving a total of 143 participants with a mean age 35.5 years. Two RCTs demonstrated (a) 36% (2.6 days) reduction in time to wound closure with ES (p < 0.001); and (b) significant reduction in wound area with ES (11.2 ± 3.2 cm2, p < 0.001) compared to controls at 21 days. Two RCTs found ES promoted better wound-healing environments, reducing edema, bacterial infection, and biofilm. This review highlighted low-risk wound-healing benefits with ES as a feasible adjunct to routine burn care.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12101274/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144129621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the use of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma (NTAPP) as an adjuvant therapy in combination with Epifast® for the experimental group, compared to standard care involving early excisions and Epifast® for the control group. A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 40 pediatric patients suffering from superficial partial-thickness and deep dermal burns. The experimental group that received NTAPP daily demonstrated a significant reduction in the need for skin grafts, requiring only 10% compared to 40% in the control group (p = 0.02). Although there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay, the experimental group showed a trend toward shorter stays (9.85 days vs. 11.65 days; p = 0.38) and lower analgesic consumption (13.01 doses vs. 21.15 doses; p = 0.09). Additionally, the infection rate in the NTAPP-treated group was significantly lower at 25%, compared to 37.95% in the control group (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that NTAPP enhances wound healing while reducing surgical morbidity and the risk of infections. In conclusion, this study highlights the transformative potential of NTAPP as an innovative strategy in pediatric burn management. It combines clinical efficacy with a less invasive approach, representing a significant advance in regenerative medicine and opening new avenues for research into advanced therapies.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12015786/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144021974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Preventive measures can significantly reduce the number of cases presenting to medical facilities; knowledge and the correct application of first aid measures in the pre-hospital stage have a significant role in reducing the risk of complications and in obtaining optimal outcomes.Methods: This retrospective one-year single-center study analyzed 399 adult burn patients treated at the Clinical Emergency Hospital of Bucharest (CEHB) in 2023. Information concerning the main characteristics of the patients (age, sex, and residence), etiology and severity of burns, and pre-hospital management of patients was analyzed.Results: Most patients (63.41%) resided in urban areas, with a higher prevalence of males (55.89%). Thermal burns accounted for 77.69% of cases, primarily caused by water, food, oil, or flames. Burns covered ≤10% TBSA in 77.19% of cases, while 6.52% extended beyond 50% TBSA. First aid was provided to 52.63% of patients at the accident site, often by non-specialized individuals. The mean time to presentation was 34.90 h, with significant correlations between time, age, burned body surface area, and burn depth.Conclusions: There is a real need for improvements in first-aid training and health initiatives to enhance pre-hospital burn care. Better documentation of the care provided to patients before being admitted to specialized centers, as well as further studies in this field, are absolutely necessary for improving prevention programs and burn management in the acute stage.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12015831/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144057969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A nanoparticle-free, bioabsorbable pol-yvinyl alcohol (PVA) with citric acid (CA) dressing produced by simple electrospin-ning was evaluated to treat acute wound healing in rats. This PVA-CA combination promotes crosslinking, increases the dressing capacity of absorption and confers heal-ing properties due to the citric acid antioxidant action.Methods: The dressing was tested in a quantitative experiment on 1.9 cm acute dermatological lesions in rats (n = 12), com-paring the PVA-CA-treated group with the untreated control group (CG). Samples were collected at 3, 7 and 14 days after lesion induction to evaluate the inflammatory process and tissue healing.Results: The macroscopic and histological data on the third day showed similar characteristics in both groups; however, after fourteen days, the PVA-CA group exhibited complete healing, accompanied by recomposition of the skin layers, whereas the wounds in the CG did not close completely.Conclusions: The results highlight that electrospun PVA-AC dressings improve healing outcomes and constitute a prom-ising and affordable solution, providing a suitable environment for tissue repair, re-ducing inflammatory cell infiltration, blood vessel formation, and restoration of epi-thelial tissue, reducing the time of the healing process of acute wounds.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12015917/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143993754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Timely nutritional support and individualized plans preserve muscle mass, promote wound healing, and reduce complications and organ dysfunction risk. Advances in pharmacological interventions, such as beta-blockers, anabolic agents, and hormonal treatment, offer promising pathways to improve recovery and mitigate long-term complications. Early mobilization and physiotherapy are essential for preventing complications of prolonged immobility, including muscle wasting, joint contractures, and functional decline; their effectiveness is closely tied to advancements in minimally invasive procedures, regenerative medicine, and reconstructive techniques, particularly for pediatric patients.Conclusions: While current strategies have significantly improved survival and outcomes for pediatric burn patients, ongoing research is critical to refine these new care strategies.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12015776/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144055139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to explore the challenges related to post-burn nutrition and nutrition education in our burn unit and identify ways to improve the situation. An interpretive description approach was used, and convenience sampling recruited fifty-three participants, including 18 adult burn survivors and their primary caregivers (each as a single dyad), 10 informal caregivers of paediatric burn survivors, and 25 burn care staff. The data were analysed through thematic analysis, revealing three main themes and seven subthemes. The findings highlight an unstructured approach to nutrition and education, along with financial constraints affecting adherence. To address these issues, strategies such as using educational materials like videos and booklets/leaflets in the local language are suggested to develop relevant interventions.

Lately, it has also been employed as an inhalant recreational drug to induce brief euphoria. Recent studies indicate a worldwide rise in the incidence of skin frostbites associated with nitrous oxide use. A scoping review was conducted to synthesize and summarize the existing literature published in English regarding frostbite injuries associated with the recreational use of nitrous oxide. The literature search was carried out in July 2024 using databases such as Embase, Web of Science and PubMed®. From an initial pool of 83 publications, 8 studies were ultimately selected for full-text review as they met our inclusion criteria for analysis. Additionally, we provide a representative clinical case involving a 21-year-old male who experienced frostbite following skin exposure to nitrous oxide. Most publications on nitrous oxide induced frostbites are from recent years, primarily between 2022 and 2024, with the first case documented in 1996. These injuries are mostly observed in young adults, with a female dominance, and are typically localized to the inner thighs. According to the existing literature, the predominant treatment approach is conservative management, with excision and split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) in the second place. This study represents the first literature review summarizing frostbite injuries to the skin from nitrous oxide misuse. There is a need for enhanced preventive measures to raise public awareness and reduce the incidence of frostbite injuries associated with the recreational use of nitrous oxide.","PeriodicalId":72961,"journal":{"name":"European burn journal","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11941200/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143712522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
