Enzymatic debridement in critical burn patients is a painful treatment that requires an optimal burn pain control protocol as well as a deep sedation for the entire duration of the procedure. Both hypnosis and opioid-analgesia may lead to significant respiratory depression. Fourteen patients undergoing enzymatic debridement under deep sedation have been included in this case study. All patients receiving oxygen through HFNC were evaluated. All patients underwent continuous monitoring of vital parameters, antithrombotic prophylaxis with low molecular weight heparins and fluid therapy calculated using the Parkland formula. Sedation was successful and well tolerated by all patients and physicians were able to carry out the enzymatic debridement procedure safely. No severe desaturation events were observed. Continuous monitoring of vital signs was carried out. Neither bradycardia events nor hypotensive or hypertensive events requiring treatment occurred. Enzymatic debridement procedures did not lead to any serious adverse events. Based on our experience, the administration of O2 by HFNC at an average concentration of 50% was proven safe and efficacious in the management of drug-induced respiratory depression.","PeriodicalId":93873,"journal":{"name":"Annals of burns and fire disasters","volume":"37 4","pages":"294-299"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11649166/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142916426","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}

We conducted a retrospective epidemiological study including all patients treated in the Mayotte burns unit between February 1st, 2022 and January 31st, 2023 (339 patients). We first studied burn patients on the island, i.e. 300 people. The average age is 10.7 years with 75% of patients under 12 years old. The overall incidence rate is 100/100,000 inhabitants, which seems higher than in the other departments, but 16/100,000 among hospitalized patients only, a figure comparable with the metropolitan level. Burns are most often caused by scalding (82.7%), affect a low surface <10% (91%) and are partial thickness (66.7%). Low-income people are over-represented in the burned population, due to very degraded housing conditions. The other group (39 cases) are patients burned in the Comoros and treated in Mayotte after an average delay of 10 days following the incident. The burns are significantly more extensive (TBSA 16.6% vs. 4.6%), deeper (full thickness 66.7 vs. 2.0%) and caused by flames (66.7% vs. 10.7%). They are more often hospitalized (71.8% vs. 16%), for a total of 608 days in the unit compared to 480 days for the other 300 patients. The Mayotte burns unit must therefore take care of both a particularly precarious local population and an external population suffering from especially serious burns.","PeriodicalId":93873,"journal":{"name":"Annals of burns and fire disasters","volume":"37 4","pages":"259-269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11649163/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142916054","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}

Traditional endpoints such as mean arterial pressure and urine output guide fluid therapy for optimal resuscitation, but an ideal marker remains controversial. Base deficit and serum lactate are markers of global tissue acidosis and inadequate oxygenation. The aim of this study was to determine whether serum lactate and base deficit together can be used as prognostic markers in acute burns and their association with sepsis and mortality. A prospective observational study with a sample size of 250 was conducted over 18 months, which included patients with 20-60% total body surface area (TBSA) having thermal burns or scald. Resuscitation was done according to hospital protocol and fluid administration was adapted according to clinical parameters. Serum lactate and base deficit values were analysed at the time of admission, then on day one, two, three and finally on day seven after admission. The two parameters were compared among survivors and non survivors. Patients were followed up till discharge, death or 30th post burn day. Baseline serum lactate levels are high and base deficit levels low in the patients sustaining burns and the levels normalised over seven days with adequate resuscitation in survivors. Persistently high serum lactate and low base deficit are associated with sepsis and increased mortality. This study indicates that serum lactate and base deficit are useful parameters to predict mortality and promising predictive tools for assessing resuscitation and development of sepsis. Using these tools to guide fluid resuscitation may help mortality and improve overall outcomes.","PeriodicalId":93873,"journal":{"name":"Annals of burns and fire disasters","volume":"37 4","pages":"287-293"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11649161/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142916417","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}

In this study we compare the efficacy of early selective enzymatic escarolysis followed by the application of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) extracted from autologous adipose tissue on a dermal substitute scaffold (DS) versus reconstruction by partial thickness skin grafts (PTSG). We enrolled all patients admitted to our referral Burn Center from September 2020 to January 2022 with deep intermediate burns of the hands: clinical data were collected, then the first group of 4 patients were treated with PTSG surgical reconstruction, and the second group of 7 patients with DS+SVF. Subsequently, the morpho-functional and aesthetic outcome (with quickDASH and POSAS questionnaires), the healing time and the number of accesses in the operating room were evaluated. A total of 11 patients and 18 hands were treated in the period considered for the study.

Silver sulfadiazine (SSD) is the most widely used topical antimicrobial agent for acute burn management worldwide. Despite its antimicrobial benefits, there is emerging evidence that SSD might delay wound reepithelialization. We hypothesized that when compared with a topical antibiotic ointment, wound reepithelialization with SSD would be delayed. We created 21 partial thickness burns on the backs of 3 anesthetized female domestic pigs (30kg) using an established vertical progression model. The burns were randomly assigned to topical treatment with SSD, triple antibiotic ointment, or petrolatum ointment applied daily for two weeks, followed by twice weekly for another 2 weeks with intermittent dressing changes. The primary outcome was percentage wound reepithelialization at day 21. Our study had 80% power to detect a 25-percentage difference in wound reepithelialization at day 21. All wounds were completely reepithelialized within 28 days of burn creation. At day 21 the mean (SD) percentages for wound reepithelialization were 73.6 (38.2), 93.2 (16.3), and 65.0 (48.9) in wounds treated with SSD, triple antibiotic, and petrolatum respectively, P=0.049. There was no significant difference among treatment groups in scar depth at day 28. Pseudoeschar formation and erythematous hypersensitivity reactions were common findings on gross analysis with SSD and topical antibiotics respectively. We conclude that SSD delayed reepithelialization of partial thickness porcine burns when compared with triple antibiotic ointment. There were no significant differences in scar depth among the groups.","PeriodicalId":93873,"journal":{"name":"Annals of burns and fire disasters","volume":"37 4","pages":"330-337"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11649159/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142916406","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}

The aim of this study is to describe the actual epidemiology of burn wound colonization and infection in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Service of Burns and Plastic Surgery at the University Hospital Center in Tirana, Albania. The study is retrospective clinical and analytical. Microbiology data, total body surface area (TBSA), patient days (LOS) and mortality were collected from a hospital database for all patients admitted to the ICU of the Service of Burns at the UHC in Tirana, Albania in 2020. The burn wound infection prevalence rate was greater than in 2010 (17.2 vs. 12 infections per 100 patients), while the burn wound colonization prevalence rate was reduced by half (20.6 vs. 44 colonized patients for 100 patients). The burn wound infection incidence rate was increased (47 vs. 42.6 infections per 1000 hospitalization days) and also the attack rate was increased (0.7 vs. 0.5 infections for 100 patients in 2010). The main pathogens were gram-positive bacteria (60 strains; 71%), followed by Gram-negative bacteria (22 strains; 26%), and fungi (3 strains; 3%). The predominant five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (55.0%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9%), Acinetobacter baumannii (8%), Staphylococcus coagulase-negative (8%) and Enterococcus faecalis (5%). Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) accounted for 55.3% (31/56) of Staphylococcal isolates.
