520 | 8 | _aBurn injuries can result from multiple mechanisms but are commonly found following an emergency response to incidents such as fires, explosions, motor vehicle collisions, industrial accidents, and transit incidents, among others. During 2003-2007, the National Fire Protection Association found that vehicle fires alone accounted for more than 400 civilian deaths and 1300 injuries.1 Similarly, structure fires cause death and injury daily. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that in 2010, a fire-related injury occurred every 30 minutes, and a death occurred every 169 minutes.2 Emergency responders must therefore maintain a high level of awareness about the various mechanisms and types of burn injuries. This chapter reviews the core principles of incident response and patient management as they relate to burn-victim care | |
