Essential Burn Unit Handbook covers the spectrum of burn care, from initial assessment and
treatment to the long-term sequelae. It is recommended for use by the house officer caring
for this often critically injured patient population, as well as for use by emergency room
personnel in the immediate diagnostic and treatment phases of burn injury. This practical
guide includes sample orders and templates for patient presentation and organization of
notes. Illustrations and tables are included to enhance the usefulness of this straightforward
volume. References for further study are included in each chapter.
Divided into 11 chapters, this book has been carefully organized and delivers information
in an easy-to-read format. Each chapter outlines the presentation, evaluation, and nonoperative
and operative
treatment options for different spine pathologies from
the cervical to the lumbar spine. Illustrations as well as
charts and tables are included for quick reference to
