Burn injury management is complex by itself within Burn Centers and Units, however management can be compounded with limited resources in the pre-hospital/critical care transport environment. These case studies in electrical, chemical/hazmat and thermal burns will help prepare scene EMS and critical care transport in leveraging care pathways with anticipating needs prior to burn treatment centers arrival.

Learning Objectives:

  • Upon completion, participant will be able to understand the teamwork that is involved in pre-transport care prior to arrival, interim and departure to a burn care facility.
  • Upon completion, participant will be able to identify the care needs of the patient and hospital caregivers related to the different types of burns that will be transported from scene.
  • Upon completion, participant will be able to describe and treat the hemodynamic process that gets interrupted related to burns and how best to stabilize the patient during flight/ground transport.
