The Treatment of Burns in Children

Burns are second only to motor vehicle accidents as a cause of accidental deaths in children. Dietrich 12 states that in the United States accidents were the leading cause of death in children from 1 to 14 years of age in 1948. They were responsible for more deaths than pneumonia, congenital anomalies, cancer, tuberculosis, leukemia, and heart disease combined. It has been estimated that there was an average of 8000 deaths per year from burns in the United States from 1940 to 1949. 23 Colebrook 9 reported that 30% of the deaths from burns in 1948 in the United States occurred in children, and in England 43.5% of the deaths from burns occurred in children. The purpose of this report is to review our clinical experience in the management of 85 burned children during the past five years and to outline the procedures which proved to be practical in their

The early and late treatment of burns in children

This paper has considered the treatment of fresh burns, unhealed burns, scar contractures and deformities from burns, keloid scars and structural deformities as they occur in children. Specific detailed instructions have been outlined for the most commonly used methods of treating these conditions. The advantages and disadvantages, indications and contraindications of each method have been discussed. In addition each type of treatment has been considered with relation to its specific application for the child patient as distinguished from the adult patient. It must be emphasized that very real differences do exist between the child and the adult both in their reaction to the burn and in their reactions to the treatment necessary for recovery from it. These differences modify the fundamentals of the treatment of burns and constitute the basic principles outlined in this paper.
