Insufflation of epinephrine-containing solutions (clysis) has shown to decrease blood loss in burn surgery. Current delivery methods are associated with significant cost and may predispose burn patients to hypothermia. This...

Despite the advances of modern operating rooms, surgeons often experience work environments that rival those of industrial workers with regard to the risk of musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries or disorders. Such...

Appropriate identification of burn depth and size is paramount. Despite the development of burn depth assessment aids [eg, laser Doppler imaging (LDI)], clinical assessment, which assesses partial-thickness burn depth with...

Burn care management includes assessing the severity of burns accurately, especially distinguishing superficial partial-thickness burns from deep partial-thickness burns, in the context of providing definitive, downstream treatment. Moreover, the healing...

Background: The Burn Specific Health Scale-Brief (BSHS-B) evaluates 9 aspects of health and has been validated globally. Existing reports typically focus on outcomes shortly after injury. The purpose of this...

Introduction: The advent of consoles that deliver both interactive games and therapy may augment rehabilitation options in burn patients. The Jintronix software combines therapy-specific software and interactive gaming as a...

Objective: Brief postsurgical electrical stimulation (ES) has been shown to enhance peripheral nerve regeneration in animal models following axotomy and crush injury. However, whether this treatment is beneficial in humans...

Background: Current surgical management of obstetrical brachial plexus injury is primary reconstruction with sural nerve grafts. Recently, the nerve-to-nerve transfer technique has been used to treat brachial plexus injury in...
