Utility of Abbreviated Burn Scoring Index in Predicting Mortality in Burn Patients – Our Experience
Abstract: The prediction of the outcome of patients presenting with severe burns is crucial in guiding clinical judgments. There are multiple models for predicting burn mortality that have been developed over a period of time. Advancements in burn management over the past few decades have led to a remarkable reduction in burn-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Improvements in critical care, fluid resuscitation protocols, infection control measures, nutritional support, early wound excision …

Role of JIPMER Burn Progress Proforma
Abstract: Burn injuries represent a significant contributor to mortality rates in developing nations such as India. While critical care ICUs commonly utilize progress proformas, those specifically tailored for burns are less prevalent. Recognizing this gap, a modified burn progress proforma has been developed to encompass comprehensive details for both acute management and rehabilitation strategies. In a country like India, where burns can have severe consequences, the need for a specialized progress …

Role of Nail Pilar Assisted Dermabrasion in Scald Burns
Abstract: Second-degree deep dermal and full-thickness burn injuries tend to heal slowly and often result in scarring. Deep dermal burns, which extend beyond the superficial layers of the skin, require prompt and specialized medical intervention to promote effective healing. While superficial burns, which involve only the epidermis and superficial dermal layers, can often be managed through wound irrigation, debridement, and standard local wound care, deeper burns present more complex challenges. In …
