Adapting to life after burn injury : reflections on care

open access: yes, 2012
A burn injury is an unforeseen event that means physical and psychological trauma for the person afflicted. The trauma experienced by different individuals varies greatly, as do perceived problems during care, rehabilitation, and throughout the remainder

High‐Density Magnetomyography With Optical Magnetometers Reveals Spatiotemporal Patterns of Evoked Muscle Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Optically pumped magnetometers are employed to contactlessly map the spatiotemporal dynamics of the magnetic field linked to electrical activity of a skeletal muscle in vivo. It is demonstrated that localization of the clinically relevant innervation zone is feasible using this non‐invasive magnetic measurement modality. ABSTRACT Magnetomyography (MMG)

Utilization of the burn unit for nonburn patients: the wound intensive care unit .

open access: yes, 1989
Burn units and experienced burn nurses are valuable, expensive resources that are underutilized when the burn census is low. Burn facilities can be used to treat other conditions or injuries to provide optimum wound management or to provide overflow ...

Inflammatory proteins and neutrophil extracellular traps increase in burn blister fluid 24h after burn

open access: yes
Burn wound blister fluid is a valuable matrix for understanding the biological pathways associated with burn injury. In this study, 152 blister fluid samples collected from paediatric burn wounds at three different hospitals were analysed using mass ...

Electric‐Field‐Assisted Spin Coating: A New Process for Adjusting Crystallization of Perovskite Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Electric‐field‐assisted spin coating is introduced as a wet‐film processing route for guiding perovskite crystallization. A transient perpendicular field produces distinct structural maxima rather than monotonic grain growth: largest scanning electron microscopy (SEM)‐derived grain size at nominal 2 kV cm−1${\rm cm}^{-1}$, largest X‐ray diffraction ...

Soft Actuators Integrated with Control and Power Units: Approaching Wireless Autonomous Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robots exhibit significant development potential in various applications. However, there are still key technical challenges regarding material improvement, structure design and components integration. This review focuses on the development and challenge of soft actuators, power components, and control components in untethered intelligent soft ...

The organisation of critical care for burn patients in the UK:epidemiology and comparison of mortality prediction models

open access: yes, 2018
In the UK, a network of specialist centres has been set up to provide critical care for burn patients. However, some burn patients are admitted to general intensive care units.

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...
