The clinical significance of hyperglycemia after pediatric traumatic brain injury is controversial. This study addresses the relationship between and outcomes in patients.We identified trauma patients admitted during a single year to our regional referral center with head Abbreviated Injury Scale scores > or = 3. We studied for admission characteristics potentially influencing their outcomes. primary outcome measure was Glasgow Outcome score.Patients who died had significantly higher serum...
Background: As the number of US burn centers has declined, access to care is increasingly limited. Inexperience in wound assessment by referring physicians often results overtriage or undertriage. In an effort improve our region, we instituted a program telemedicine evaluation acute burns. Methods: We created network linking center three hospitals located 298 350 air miles away. Participants agreed perform consultation for acutely burned patients admitted their emergency departments....
Although colloid was a component of the original Parkland formula, it has been omitted from standard resuscitation for over 30 years. However, some burn centers use as "rescue" therapy patients who exhibit progressively increasing crystalloid requirements, phenomenon termed "fluid creep." We reviewed our experience with this procedure. With Institutional Review Board approval, we all adult > or =20%TBSA burns admitted January 1, 2005, through December 31, 2007, completed formal...
Objective: Our objective was to compare outcomes of a restrictive liberal red cell transfusion strategy in 20% or more total body surface area (TBSA) burn patients. We hypothesized that the group would have less blood stream infection (BSI), organ dysfunction, and mortality. Background: Patients with major burns (>1 volume) requirements. Studies suggest is equivalent strategy. However, injury precluded from these studies. The optimal thus needed but remains unknown. Methods: This prospective...

Journal clubs have an extensive history that dates back to the time of Sir William Osler. They provide a venue discuss latest medical literature among groups peers and are innovative method for translating knowledge into practice within individual institutions. With advances in social media, journal poised take evolutionary step by harnessing digital connectivity. Online uniting hundreds practitioners from around world under banner one cause: enhancing translation without limitations...
Telemedicine has been increasingly used in a host of settings for over 20 years. Burns are well suited evaluation by either synchronous ("interactive") video or asynchronous digital ("store and forward") imagery, but little information is available about telemedicine use burn care. The authors surveyed U.S. center directors to assess their current of, interest in, clinical treatment. With Institutional Review Board approval, web-based survey (surveymonkey.com) was created sent 126 centers...
Altered pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients have been shown to result inadequate enoxaparin dosing for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis. In the burn unit, routine monitoring of antifactor Xa levels was implemented ensure adequate VTE The purpose this study examine appropriateness prophylaxis specialized patient population. authors reviewed with acute injury from June 1, 2009, October 20, who had therapy monitored levels. Data collection occurred prospectively. Thirty-eight...

Fluid resuscitation of burned children is challenging because their small size and intolerance to over- or underresuscitation. Our American Burn Association-verified regional burn center has used colloid "rescue" as part our pediatric protocol. With Institutional Review Board approval, the authors reviewed with ≥15% TBSA burns admitted from January 1, 2004, May 2009. Resuscitation was based on Parkland formula, which adjusted maintain urine output. Patients requiring progressive increases in...
