In addition, the book has been supplemented with the latest information on fluid resuscitation, organ support for burn patients, necrotizing soft tissue infections, and TEN/SJS. Written in a concise manner, the updated edition of this book provides essential guidelines for optimal care to improve patient outcomes, and thus will be a valuable reference resource for physicians, surgeons, residents, nurses, and other burn care providers.
