Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1986
Electrical injury is unlike other burns because of extensive local destruction of tissue at the points of entrance and exit. Artz likened it to a severe muscle crush injury, whereas Hunt showed that the deep-tissue loss is secondary to extremely high temperatures from resistance of the tissues (skin and bone) to the passage of electric current ...

Electrical Burns of the Mouth in Children
Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, 1984The acceptable state of the art for commissure electric burns of the mouth in children in the past was to advocate conservative treatment, allowing spontaneous healing to be followed by reconstructive procedures. These statements were made because of the difficulty of assessing the degree of initial injury, the loss of valuable normal tissue in early ...

Accident and Emergency Nursing, 1999
This article examines electrical burn injuries, how they occur and the nature of the injuries caused when people come into contact with electrical currents. The aetiology of tissue damage is discussed along with the pathophysiology of such encounters. The management of patients presenting with such injuries is explored including the vital role of the ...

Electrical burns make up only 2% of all burn injuries in Denmark. In the course of about 6 years 31 patients with electrical hand burns have been admitted to the Burns Unit, Kommunehospitalet, Copenhagen. The causes are reviewed. Three of the injuries were caused by high-tension current (> 1000 volts), the remaining 28 by 220 or 380 v.
