Across
- 8. first phase in responding to a burn patient, important to protect airway, promote breathing, assess neurological status, implement fluid resuscitation, and stabilize patient
- 10. this burn is characterized by no break in the dermis, often a reddened or sunburned area
- 12. this face begins 48-72 hours after burn injury, includes maintenance of circulatory and respiratory system, infection prevention, wound care, pain management, nutritional support, promoting mobility, and psychological/emotional support.
- 13. graft of patient's pwn skin of different unaffected site, less graft rejection with this method
- 15. a type of burns assessment used to determine severity of burns, most accurate in adults
- 18. hemoglobin that has carbon monoxide bound to it instead of oxygen
- 19. removal of dead or infected skin tissue to help burn heal
Down
- 1. this burn is characterized by blistering, pain, and redness, superficial dermis
- 2. equation used in fluid resuscitation; 4mL x BSA x weight (kg)= Volume of LR
- 3. this burn is characterized by pallor, blistering, and pain, partial dermis
- 4. dead tissue found in a full thickness burn
- 5. after primary response, includes obtaining Full set of vital signs, Giving comfort, assessing History with a Head to toe, and Inspecting posterior for hidden burns
- 6. final phase is caring for burn injury, includes tending to hypertrophic scarring, restorative care and continuing care outside the hospital.
- 7. this burn is characterized by grayish-white skin, or black necrosis and carbonization; deep SQ tissue, muscle, and bone exposed
- 9. emergent procedure where the surgeon will cut superficial layer of skin to allow expansion due to fluid dumping from full thickness burns
- 11. a type of burns assessment mainly used in children, divides body into smaller pieces
- 14. defined as excessive sensitivity to painful stimuli, pain that is higher than we would expect, often seen in burn patients
- 16. graft of donor skin from a cadaver for burn patients, chance of rejection since it is not from patient's own body
- 17. first response when responding to a trauma- checking airway with cervical spine precautions, breathing and ventilation, circulation with hemorrhage control, assessing disability, and exposure/environmental control; this should take around 3 minutes
