assess/reassess/monitor. Failure to act as a pt advocate.
Smoke inhalation: Metabolic Asphyxiation. What is it? CO2 poisoning. CO2 produced by incomplete causation of burning materials:
What's the tx? hypoxia and carboxyhemoglobinemia. Tx: 100% humidified O2 via non-
rebreather
Smoke Inhalation Injuries: Lower Airway Injury trachea, bronchioles, alveoli. May not appear for 12-48hrs. Pneumonia leading
cause of death.
, Emergent Phase Complications Cardiovascular: impaired microcirculation (increased viscosity > sludging) Give
LMWH, SCD's and tedhose. Urinary: renal ischemia, acute tubular necrosis from
myoglobinuria and hemoglobinurea caused by breakdown.
Drug Therapy for Emergent Phase Morphine, hydromorphone (dilaudid), haloperidol, midazolam, Lorazepam
(Ativan), tetanus shot. ATB: antimicrobials silver sulfadiazine, mafenide acetate
ASSESS FOR SULFA ALLERGIES. Topical administered vs IV or PO d/t low
blood supply to burn area.
Emergent Phase: Burn Care Facial care: open method. Eyes: ATB ointment. No use of pillows, no pressure
on ears (ears may stick and cause bleeding/extensive damage). Elevate and
extend extremities. Pericare: keep clean, contamination issues.
Assessment Findings: Partial-Thickness (Superficial/1st redness, pain, moderate/severe tenderness, minimal edema, blanching with
Degree Burn) pressure
Assessment Findings: Partial-Thickness (Deep/2nd moist blebs, blisters. molted white, pink to cherry red. hypersensitivity to
Degree Burn) touch/air, moderate to severe pain, blanching with pressure
Assessment Findings: Full-Thickness (3rd and 4th Dry, Leathery eschar, waxy, white to dark brown charred. Strong burn odor.
Degree Burns) Impaired sensation when touched, absence of pain with severe pain in
surrounding tissues. Lack of blanching with pressure.
Emergency Management Thermal Burns Unresponsive CAB/responsive ABC. Stabilize spin, assess for inhalation injury,
O2. Anticipate intubation. Vitals, LOC, resp. status, O2 and heart rhythm.
Remove nonadherent clothing, jewelry and contacts. Cover concurrent burns
with dry dressings/clean sheet. 2 large bore IV access. Fluid replacement.
Elevate limbs. IV analgesics frequently, insert foley cath if TBSA > 15%. Identify
