Abstract
The properly administered first aid is an important component in achieving better outcomes in the treatment of burn patients. One of the first stages of management of such patients is a pre-hospital one. The purpose of the study is to analyze the literature review on medical care for children with burns in the prehospital stage, to identify critical deviations and changes that require revision of the current recommendations. A review of trials and latest recommendations on providing medical care to burned children at the prehospital period was carried out. The search was done in PubMed, Medline, GoogleScholar, eLibrary databases, as well as in Yandex search system. Out of 8 168 sources, 17 publications were selected for the data analysis. The performed review has identified main challenges in providing the first aid to children with burns at the prehospital stage. Children will benefit from reaching the consensus between burn specialists and emergency medical providers before patients are taken to a burn center. These data should be used as the basis for future agreements between these specialists. Correctly placed accents on anesthesia, dressings, infusion therapy in children with burns before their arrival to the hospital dictate a need to revise the existing recommendations in our country.
