Abstract
• Historically burn deaths sharply declined with the introduction of Brooke formula. • Brooke formula uses only 37.5% crystalloids than Parkland formula. • A 75 kg man with 30% burns loses 7200 mL of plasma in 24 h. In Brooke formula the rate of plasma infusion for the same is only 1125 mL in 24 h. • Brooke formula has a fair balance of both crystalloids and colloids to replenish partly both plasma and sodium yet avoiding over-transfusion of the same.
