Long-term persistance of the pathophysiologic response to severe burn injury. [PDF]

, 2011
Main contributors to adverse outcomes in severely burned pediatric patients are profound and complex metabolic changes in response to the initial injury. It is currently unknown how long these conditions persist beyond the acute phase post-injury.
