Explosive Weapons Trauma Care Collective (EXTRACCT) Blast Injury Clinical Practice Guideline: Burn Management in...

This clinical practice guideline from the Explosive Weapons Trauma Care Collective (EXTRACCT) group provides a review of current best practice for management of burn wounds in low-resource conflict settings.

The guideline provides recommendations for initial evaluation, including airway management and estimation of burn size, resuscitation strategies, wound care, and approaches to definitive surgical management.
