Burn injuries may cause morbidity and death, and patients may have widely variable presentations and outcomes. This chapter focuses on the critical care aspects of burn injury and management issues of burn and electrical injuries. Burns are classified according to the amount of total body surface area (TBSA) affected, the depth of burn, and the type of exposure associated with the burn. More specifically, burns can be chemical, electrical, or thermal. Burn severity is determined by the depth of involvement.
