Abstract

Pediatric burn care has improved to the point where even patients with massive burns have a reasonable chance of survival. An important component of this success is the pediatric multidisciplinary burn team. The pediatric burn team is made up of all the disciplines that are required to provide optimal care of the patient as well as their family. The pediatric burn team in its initial iteration was multidisciplinary, with each discipline focusing on their own area without much overlap. However, over time the burn team has become more cooperative and interdisciplinary leading to improved outcomes for children with burn injuries. Ultimately, pediatric burn teams may be able to function in a transdisciplinary manner which would potentially allow for even more innovation in the care of burn patients.
