This document summarizes information about burns, including causes, signs and symptoms, classifications, treatment, and complications. Burns are injuries to skin tissue caused by things like fire, heat, sunlight, chemicals, or electricity. They can range from first-degree burns involving only the outer layer of skin to third-degree burns penetrating deep into tissues. Treatment depends on the severity and extent of the burns, and may include rapid fluid replacement, antibiotics, tetanus shots, and hospitalization for serious burns affecting the airways, large skin areas, or specific body parts. Complications can arise from deep or widespread burns like infections, low blood volume, hypothermia, breathing problems, and scarring.

The document discusses skin anatomy and classifications of burn injuries. It describes the three layers of skin - epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue. It then explains the four classes of burns from first to fourth degree. First degree burns affect only the outer epidermis layer. Second degree burns damage the epidermis and dermis layers, causing blistering. Third degree burns destroy all skin layers and require grafting. Fourth degree burns extend into muscles and tendons below the skin. The document also mentions MEBO as a natural herbal ointment used to aid tissue healing.
Burn ppt Dr Neha Jadhav
This document defines and classifies different types of burns based on their cause. It describes the pathology of burns which involves coagulative necrosis, cellular injury, inflammation and the release of vasoactive substances. This leads to increased capillary permeability, edema, shock and blister formation. Burns are classified by degree from 1st to 4th based on the depth of tissue involvement and appearance. Treatment involves addressing shock, wound care, antibiotics, nutrition, and skin grafting or physical therapy depending on the severity of the burn. Complications can include Curling's ulcers, acute pancreatitis and other issues.

1) Burns are injuries caused by heat or chemicals and can be classified based on depth and surface area affected.
2) First degree burns involve only the epidermis, second degree extend deeper to the dermis, and third degree destroy the entire skin.
3) Complications can include shock, infection, organ failure and death in severe cases.
4) Treatment depends on severity but generally involves cooling the burn, pain relief, wound care, fluid resuscitation and antibiotics to prevent infection.
Thermal burns with anatomy of skin.
Thermal burns occur when skin is exposed to excessive heat from fire, steam, or hot objects. They are classified based on the depth of skin damage: first-degree burns affect the epidermis; second-degree burns involve the epidermis and dermis; third-degree burns damage all skin layers. More severe burns can impact deeper tissues like muscles and bones. Treatment depends on burn severity, from soaking and dressing minor burns to immediate medical care for serious third-degree burns.
Burns scalds
Dry heat sources like fire, hot objects, the sun, chemicals and electricity as well as wet heat sources like hot liquids and steam can cause burns and scalds. First degree burns damage only the outer layer of skin and appear as redness and inflammation while second degree burns blister and damage deeper layers of skin. Third degree burns severely damage or destroy skin and can damage deeper tissues, posing a serious risk of infection. For burns and scalds, it is important to run the affected area under cold water for 10 minutes or more, remove jewelry, avoid removing clothing stuck to the burn, apply a sterile dressing, and seek prompt medical attention for anything more than a minor burn or scald.
Burns
First, second, and third degree burns are classified based on the depth of skin damage. A first degree burn damages the outer layer of skin, while a second degree burn extends deeper to damage the layer below. The most severe, a third degree burn, destroys the deepest skin tissues. Different types of burns include flame, scald, inhalation, electrical, lightening, and chemical burns. Signs and symptoms range from pain, blistering, and redness to life-threatening shock. Primary management of burns involves removing the casualty from danger, cooling the burn with water, covering with sterile dressing, and treating for shock as needed.
Burns First Aid by Dr.Mohamed El-Abiad
The document discusses different types of burns, including classifications, causes, complications, and treatment. It describes first degree burns which affect the top layer of skin, second degree burns which involve deeper skin layers, and third degree burns which destroy the full thickness of the skin. Treatment involves cooling the burned area, removing clothing, treating for shock, preventing infection with antibiotics, cleaning and covering the wound. More severe burns may require skin grafts. Complications can include shock, infection, scarring and cancer. Frostbite from cold exposure is also discussed.

Unit 2 management of patients with burn
This document summarizes the pathophysiology and classification of burns. It describes how burns are caused by thermal, radiation or chemical injury, leading to tissue destruction. Burn depth is classified as superficial, deep partial thickness, or full thickness depending on the extent of epidermal and dermal damage. Burn extent is estimated using methods like the Rule of Nines or Lund-Browder chart based on percentage of total body surface area affected. Classification determines burn management and predicts healing outcomes.
Types of skin burns
First-degree burns damage only the outer layer of skin and cause redness, swelling and pain. Treatment involves cooling and moisturizing the skin. Second-degree burns go deeper, causing blistering and more pain as nerves are exposed. They take 10-15 days to heal and may cause scarring. Third-degree burns are the most severe, damaging skin, fat, muscle and possibly bone. The skin appears black, charred or white, and healing can take many months with medical treatment.

FROSBITE
Frostbite refers to skin and tissue damage caused by freezing temperatures below -0.55°C. It is most common in people spending long periods outdoors, the very young/old, and those with circulation problems or taking medications that constrict blood vessels. When exposed to cold, the body prioritizes core warmth by constricting blood vessels in the extremities, causing them to freeze. Frostbite symptoms range from numbness to blistering and blackened skin depending on severity. Immediate first aid includes slowly rewarming the affected area and seeking medical help to assess damage and prevent complications like infection or tissue death.
Physiotherapy in burns
Physiotherapy plays an important role in the management of burn injuries. It focuses on positioning, splinting, and scar management to prevent contractures and promote wound healing. Positioning aims to maintain joints in functional positions opposite to the direction of potential contracture. Splinting is used during the acute inflammatory phase and following skin grafting to maintain positioning. Physiotherapy also addresses scar management through pressure therapy, stretching, and exercises to improve range of motion and function.

There are three degrees of burns - first, second, and third - classified based on how deep the burn penetrates the skin. First-degree burns only affect the outer layer of skin, while second-degree burns penetrate deeper into the dermis and cause blistering. The most severe third-degree burns destroy both the epidermis and dermis, and can damage underlying tissues. Children and older adults are most at risk, and common causes include scalding liquids, flames, and smoking. Symptoms vary with severity but include blistering, pain, and swelling.
5. Burns. Frostbite. Electrical injury-1.pptx
This document discusses burns, including classification, depth, pathophysiology, symptoms, treatment and more. It begins by classifying burns as thermal, electrical, radiation, or chemical. Burns are further classified by depth and percentage of total body surface area affected. Treatment principles include fighting burn shock, treating the burn surface, restoring fluid volume, antibiotics, and detoxification. Initial treatment focuses on airway, breathing, circulation, and removing clothing before flushing chemicals and giving intravenous fluids.
Anaesthetic-Management-of-Burns.pptx
This document discusses the pathophysiology and management of burn patients. It covers:
1) Major burns cause massive tissue destruction and inflammatory response, leading to burn shock from fluid shifts and systemic effects if >20% TBSA.
2) Burns trigger a hypermetabolic response for weeks, with increased cardiac work and protein catabolism impairing healing.
3) Resuscitation follows the Parkland formula to replace fluid losses. Fluid management aims to maintain urine output and prevent organ dysfunction.
Burn management
This document provides information on burns, including:
- The definition and causes of burns including thermal, electrical, chemical and radiation burns.
- The degrees of burns from first to fourth degree based on depth of tissue damage.
- Methods for estimating the percentage of total body surface area burned including the Rule of Nines.
- Criteria for burn admission to hospital care based on factors like surface area, depth and location of burns.
- Complications that can result from severe burns like infection, shock and organ damage.
- The importance of first aid like cooling the burned area in water to minimize further tissue injury.
burns ppt.pptx
This document summarizes the pathophysiology and management of different types of burns. It describes the classification of burns based on depth and extent of injury. Thermal burns are the most common and can be caused by flame, scald, or contact with hot objects. Chemical and electrical burns cause tissue destruction through different mechanisms. The pathophysiology of burns involves fluid shifts, hypermetabolism, and immune dysfunction. Burn management focuses on airway protection, fluid resuscitation according to the Parkland formula, wound care, pain control, and infection prevention.
Burns -RBXY1.ppt
Burns are injuries to tissues caused by heat, friction, electricity, radiation or chemicals. They can damage the skin, airways, lungs, circulation, gut and immune system. The severity is classified by depth and size of the burned area. First degree burns only affect the outer layer of skin while fourth degree burns extend deeper to involve muscles and bones. Proper assessment of burn depth and size is important for treatment. Burns increase inflammation and alter blood vessel permeability, causing fluid shifts that can cause shock. They also impair the immune system, increasing risk of infection.

留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径，但认证只是个体行为，不是所有留学生都操作，所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的，他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单，就有了使用价值。

Hypotension and role of physiotherapy in it
This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.

Here is summary of hypertension -
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious medical condition that occurs when blood pressure in the body's arteries is consistently too high. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.

The burns
- 1. The Burns Name : Muhammed Muhsen Ahmed Stage : First Stage Group : B
- 2. Burns: are injuries to tissue that can be caused by fire the sun, chemicals heated objects or fluids, electricity or other means.
- 3. Signs and symptoms of burns include: 1-Red, swollen skin 2-Pain, which may be severe 3-Wet or moist-looking skin 4-Blisters 5-Waxy white appearance 6-Blackened or charred skin in severe cases.
- 4. Classifications of burns: • First-degree burn: red skin and very painful with some blisters • Second-degree burn: These burns affect both the epidermis and the second layer of skin (dermis). • Third-degree burn. : These burns involve the deep structures (muscles and bone).
- 5. Causes: Burns occur when the skin is exposed to high temperatures — greater than 140 F (60 C). Many substances can cause burns, including: • Fire • Hot liquid or steam • Hot metal • Electrical currents • Radiation, such as from X-rays • Sunlight • Chemicals, such as strong acids • Friction.
- 6. Treatment: 1) patient admit to hospital if : -Air way injury or inhalational injury -Neck and head burned -Genitalia burned -Hand burned 2) Rapid replacement of fluid according tototal body surface area percentage burned. Note(Calculate the fluid requirement by parkland formula :)X B.wt X 4 ml)) 3) Antibiotics injection 4) Antitetanus injection
- 7. Role of Nine ( 9%): To determine the surface area percentage of burn by use role of Nine 9% : • upper limb 9% for each one • lower limb 18 % for each one • in front body 18% • the back 18% • head or neck 9% • genitalia 1% Caution: • Don't use ice • Don't apply ointments to the burn. • Don't break blisters.
- 8. Complications: Deep or widespread burns can lead to many complications, including: • Local infection. • Widespread infection (sepsis): Sepsis occurs when bacteria from an infection enter your bloodstream and spread throughout your body. • Low blood volume (hypovolemia): Burns can damage blood vessels and cause fluid loss. • Low body temperature (hypothermia): So when a large portion of the skin is injured, you lose body heat. This increases your risk of hypothermia • Breathing (respiratory) problems: Breathing hot air burn airways and cause breathing difficulties. • Scarring. • Bone and joint problems: Deep burns can limit movement of the bones and joints.
- 9. Thank You
