This document discusses different types of burns, including thermal burns caused by fire, heat, or chemicals; electrical burns; and radiation burns. It describes burn severity based on depth and percentage of total body surface area affected. First aid procedures are outlined, such as cooling the burn with water and covering it loosely with a sterile bandage. Hospitalization, pain management, and wound care are also discussed. Surgical techniques like dermabrasion are mentioned as part of longer-term treatment.

2.  Caused by exposure to or contanct
with flame, hot liquid, semi- liduid
(steam) and hot objective.
 Example: residential fire, exposure to
auto mobile accidents, cooking
accidents.

4. Caused by the tissue contact with
strong acids, alkalis, or organic
compounds.
Example: most common example is
house hold cleansing agent.

6.  Electrical burns are caused by the an
exogenous electrical shock. The heat
is generated by the electrical energy
as it passes through the body

8.  Caused by the protracted exposure to
uv light, radiation therapy, tunning
booths, radio active substance and x-
ray

10.  INHALATION injury may be upper
airway and incar injury in minutes to
hours or may involves the lower
airway and causes acute respiratory
distress syndrome.

11.  According to the burns depth

12.  According to the burn severity:
1.Minor burns: all first degree
burns as well as second degree
burns that involves less than 10%
of the body surface usually are
classified as minor burns.
2.Moderate burns: burns involving
the hands, feet, face, or genitals
second degree burns involving
more than 10% of the body
surface area.

13. Superficial partial thickness burns
of the head, hands, feet of
perineum, suspected child abuse,
concomitant trauma, and
significant pre exciting disease.
3.Severe burns: burn surface
involvement of 25% body surface
area. All one third degree burns
are classified as moderate or
more often as severe.

14.  ACCORDING TO EXTENT OF BODY
SURFACE ARE INJURED:
1. Rule of nine:

15. 2. LUND AND BROWDER METHODS:

16.  PLAM METHOD

17.  Before burns are treated, the burning
agent must stopped Especially
clothing.
 Hospitalization is sometimes
necessary for optimal care of burns.
Ex; severely burned arm or leg above
the level of heart to prevent swelling is
more easily accommodated in
hospitals.

18.  Burns centers in hospitals that are
specially equipped and staffed to care
for burn victems.

19.  If the skin is not broken, run cool
water over the burned area or soak it
in cool water bath.
 Reassure the victim and keep calm.
 Cover the burn with sterile non
adhesive bandage.
 Protect burn from friction and
pressure.

20.  Over the counter pain medications
may be used to help relieve pain, that
also help to reduced inflammation and
swelling.
 Make sure the victim is breathing. If
the breathing has stopped or the
victim airway is blocked then open
airway and if necessary begin CPR.
 Do not use blanket or towel.
 Avoid breaking blisters.

21.  Do not apply ointment, butter,
medications, fluffy cotton dressing
ice, adhesive bandages, cream, oil, or
any household remedy to burns.
 Do not allow the burn to become
contaminated. Avoid breathing and
coughing on burned area.
 Do not disturbed blisters or dead skin.

22.  1. Emergency periods or immediate phase.
