A

1st degree: affects the epidermis, sun burn
the skin is intact heals on its own

2nd degree: more severe, tissue damage goes down deeper into the skin causing blisters(filled with fluid)

3rd degree: Full thickness
-Epidermis, dermis, and underlying subcutaneous tissue

4th degree:(dont worry about this)

  • Full-thickness and deeper tissue
    - Epidermis, dermis, and underlying subcutaneous tissue, tendons, muscle, and bone

Q

What is Burn shock

A

Massive electrolyte and fluid loss

  • decreased cardiac contractility and decreased cardiac output with inadequate capillary perfusion
  • Fluid and protein move out of the circulatory system. Results in High Hct (hematocrit) and WBC and low protein
  • the liver enlarges, because it is the site of blod clotting factors which is also affected; it increases the risk of blood clots forming

Q

Burn Shock Continues (Slide 55 & 56)

A

Metabolic Shoots up
-Greater than 40% results in
Systemic hypermetabolic state (AKA flow phase)
-Increased internal temperature (this will affect core and skin temperature)
-Tachycardia, hypercapnia, and muscle wasting

  • Inflammatory response
    - Localized
    - Cytokines are released
    - Can lead to systemic response (high blood sugar)

-Impaired wound healing and decreased immune system
