Abstract
Burn units bring together resources to manage large complex wounds, organ failures, and the hypermetabolic response to injury. These resources can also facilitate management of other problems such as purpura fulminans, toxic epidermal necrolysis, staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, and major mechanical soft-tissue injuries. During a recent 10-year interval 2.4% of all acute admissions to a regional pediatric burn facility were in this category and form the basis for this review.Entities:
