1. Análise da eficiência de uma rede de urgência para tratamento de múltiplos queimados.
RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a eficácia da estratégia adotada e a qualidade do atendimento em trauma pediátrico na sobrevivência dos pacientes atendidos após desastre em uma cidade do interior de Minas Gerais, em comparação a resultados esperados por estudos sobre mortalidade infantil em grandes queimados. Métodos: análise retrospectiva observacional

2. Keratinocyte growth factor, interleukins (1 beta, 6, 8, 10, 12), and tumor necrosis factor alpha in culture medium of dermal fibroblast of burned patients
PURPOSE: To evaluate the level of cytokines and keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) or Fibroblast Growth Factor 7 (FGF-7) in the culture medium of cultured human dermal fibroblasts from patients with large burn in comparison to small burn. METHODS: Fibroblasts of 10 patients (four large burns, four small burns and two controls) were initiated by the enzymatic

3. Keratinocyte growth factor, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1 beta gene expression in cultured fibroblasts and keratinocytes from burned patients
PURPOSE: To evaluate the gene expression of KGF, TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta in skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes cultured from burned patients. METHODS: Three patients with large burns and three patients with small burns, as well as two controls, were included. The cell culture was initiated by the enzymatic method. After extraction and purification of mRNA, q

4. Uso da vancomicina nas infecções por Staphylococcus aureuse epidermides em pacientes queimados: monitoramento das concentrações plasmáticas após infusão intermitente / Use of vancomycin in staphylococcus aureus and epidermides infection on burns patients: therapeutic drug monitoring in plasma after intermitent infusion
O paciente grande queimado está entre os de maior risco de contrair infecção hospitalar, sendo que, aproximadamente 80% dos óbitos nestes pacientes são decorrentes de infecção. Devido à prevalência de S. aureus meticilina resistente (MRSA) nas unidades de queimados prescreve-se a vancomicina como fármaco de 1ª linha. Entretanto como a farmacociné

5. Complicações infecciosas e fatores preditivos de infecção em pacientes queimados
BACKGROUND. Despite advances of the treatment of burns have decreased the letality rate and improved the quality of life of burned patients, infectious complication remain a major cause of death in burn victims. Few patients are as susceptible to the development of infections as burn patients. Severe dysfunction of the immune system, a large cutaneous coloni

6. Postburn pancreatitis.
OBJECTIVE: The authors examined the prevalence and complications of pancreatitis in severely burned patients. Factors predictive for the development of pancreatitis after burns are considered. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Pancreatitis has been documented at necropsy after burns; however, it is not clinically recognized as a common complication of burn injury. Re

7. Hypertonic sodium resuscitation is associated with renal failure and death.
OBJECTIVE: The use of hypertonic sodium solutions (HSS) and lactated Ringer's (LR) solution in the resuscitation of patients with major burns was compared. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Hypertonic sodium solutions have been recommended for burn resuscitation to reduce the large total volumes required with isotonic LR solution and their attendant complications.

8. Current treatment of severely burned patients.
OBJECTIVE: The authors provide an update on a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of severely burned patients. A review of studies and clinical trials from the past to the present include fluid resuscitation, sepsis, immune function, hypermetabolism, early excision, wound healing, scar formation, and inhalation injury. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Advanc

9. Stimulation of Hematopoiesis by the Fms-Like Tyrosine Kinase 3 Ligand Restores Bacterial Induction of Th1 Cytokines in Thermally Injured Mice
Patients with large burn injuries are susceptible to opportunistic infections due to impaired functions of multiple effector cells of innate immunity and acquired immunity, including macrophages, dendritic cells (DC), natural killer (NK) cells, and T cells. The ability of a host to produce Th1 cytokines, such as gamma interferon (IFN-γ) and interleukin-12 (

10. A submaximal dose of insulin promotes net skeletal muscle protein synthesis in patients with severe burns.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothesis that a submaximal insulin dose reverses the net muscle catabolism associated with severe burns, and to determine its effects on amino acid kinetics. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The authors previously showed that a maximal dose of insulin administered to patients with severe burns promoted skeletal muscle glucose uptake a

11. Use of split-thickness dermal grafts to repair corneal and scleral defects--a study of 10 patients.
The use of split-thickness dermal grafts for successful repair of corneal and scleral defects is reported in 10 patients (11 eyes) who had non-infectious, impending, or overt ocular perforation. In all patients, traditional methods of reconstruction were deemed inappropriate or had already failed. Corneo-scleral defects occurred after various operations: pte

12. Characterization of growth hormone enhanced donor site healing in patients with large cutaneous burns.
BACKGROUND: Human growth hormone is an anabolic agent that attenuates injury-induced catabolism and stimulates protein synthesis. Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) administered therapeutically to patients with massive burns has been shown to increase the rate of skin graft donor site healing. It has been postulated that growth hormone affects wound hea
