New Strategies for Burn Diagnosis and Severity Assessment
摘要
In this chapter, the author innovatively proposes a dynamic assessment method and absolute burn size-based method for burn diagnosis. Based on large-sample epidemiological findings, novel classification criteria for burn severity assessment is established. Furthermore, the effects of age and diabetes mellitus on prognosis are quantitatively analyzed. For the first time, the differential clinical implications of procalcitonin (PCT) peak values during the shock stage and infection stage are elucidated for burn treatment.
