Creating an educational module to improve the calculation of total body surface area burned

2020
Initial management of burn patients involves the calculation of total body surface area burned and subsequent fluid management; a series of events which when performed incorrectly leads to complications for the patients. Proper education of graduate level health care practitioner students through an educational module is a solution to the ...

Accuracy of Prehospital Care Providers in Determining Total Body Surface Area Burned in Severe Pediatric Thermal Injury

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2017
Accurate measurement of total body surface area (TBSA) burned is a key factor in the care of pediatric patients with burn, especially those with large thermal injuries. There is a paucity of data on the accuracy of these measurements by prehospital, nonburn center, and emergency department (ED) providers, which can have drastic implications for patient

Competence and Physical Impairment of Pediatric Survivors of Burns of More Than 80% Total Body Surface Area

Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, 1996
Children who survive massive burn injuries are challenged by the physical sequelae of their injuries as they return to normal daily routines. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of physical impairment on the competence of such children as they pursued their lives.

Microskin autografting in the treatment of burns over 70% of total body surface area: 14 years of clinical experience

Burns, 2011
Despite the fact that early excision and grafting have significantly improved burn outcomes, the management of severely burned patients whose burn size exceeds 70% total body surface area (TBSA) still represents a big challenge for burn surgeons all over the world.

Length of Stay Per Total Body Surface Area Burn: A Validation Study Using the National Burn Registry.

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2022
A length of stay (LOS) of one day per percent total body surface area (TBSA) burn has been generally accepted but not validated in current pediatric burn studies.

Evaluating Discrepancies in Percent Total Body Surface Area Burn Assessments Between Prehospital Providers and Burn Center Physicians.

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2021
Burns are routinely assessed at the scene of the incident by prehospital or emergency medical services providers. The initial management of burns is based on the calculation of the extent of the injury, reported as percent total body surface area.

EasyTBSA as a method for calculating total body surface area burned: a validation study

Emergency Medicine Journal, 2023
BackgroundCurrent methods of burn estimation can lead to incorrect estimates of the total body surface area (TBSA) burned, especially among injured children. Inaccurate estimation of burn size can impact initial management, including unnecessary transfer to burn centres and fluid overload during resuscitation.

Three-dimensional imaging is a novel and reliable technique to measure total body surface area

Burns, 2018
The aim of this study was to explore the diverse clinimetric aspects of three-dimensional imaging measurements of TBSA in clinical practice compared with the methods currently used in clinical practice (i.e., the rule of nines and palm method) to measure TBSA in clinical practice.To assess reliability, two independent researchers measured the TBSAs of ...
