          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción y objetivo. Las quemaduras son un importante problema global de salud pública y sus aspectos epidemiológicos varían de una comunidad a otra. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar los factores asociados al desarrollo de infecciones intrahospitalarias en el adulto gran quemado en un hospital de referencia en el Perú mediante un estudio retrospectivo de 5 años. Material y métodos. Estudio observacional, analítico de tipo cohorte histórico, cuali-cuantitativo. Para la muestra tomamos el total de pacientes grandes quemados del Hospital Nacional Daniel Alcides Carrión del Ca-llao, en Lima, Perú, durante el periodo 2014-2019, que fueron 45. Hicimos una revisión de las historias clínicas de aquellos que cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Empleamos análisis bivariado de variables independientes entre los expuestos y no expuestos a las variables de causas estudiadas: edad, hipoalbuminemia, comorbilidades, porcentaje de superficie corporal total quemada y localización de la lesión, y utilizamos la prueba de correlación de Pearson y las pruebas U de Mann Whitney o la prueba de Kruskal Wallis. Resultados. La incidencia acumulada de infectados fue del 28.89%. En el análisis bivariado, los factores asociados al desarrollo de infecciones intrahospitalarias fueron: quemaduras localizadas en genitales (RR 11.6; IC95% 3.90-34.84; p<0.001), hipoalbuminemia (RR 0.07; IC95% 0.03-0.16; p=<0.001), porcentaje de superficie corporal total quemada (RR 92.9; IC95% 2.78-310; p=0.011) y edad de los pacientes (RR 1.02; IC95% 0,98-1,05; p=0.017). Conclusiones. Los principales factores asociados al desarrollo de infecciones intrahospitalarias en el paciente gran quemado en nuestro medio fueron las quemaduras en genitales, la hipoalbuminemia, el porcentaje de superficie corporal total quemado y la edad de los pacientes.

          Abstract Background and objective. Burns are an important global public health problem, and its epidemiological aspects vary from one community to another. The aim of the present study was to determine the associated factors with the development of intrahospital infections in adults with severe burns in a reference hospital in Peru through a 5-year retrospective study. Methods. Observational, analytical historical cohort type, quali-quantitative study. For the sample, the total number of patients with severe burn injuries was taken on count at the Daniel Alcides Carrión del Callao National Hospital, Lima, Peru, between 2014 and 2019, which was 45. A review was made of the clinical records of patients who complied with the inclusion criteria. Use bivariate analysis of independent variables between those exposed and not exposed to the variables of causes studied: age, hypoalbuminemia, comorbidities, percentage of total body surface burned and location of the lesion, and the Pearson correlation test and the U of Mann Whitney or the test of Kruskal Wallis. Results. A cumulative incidence of infected of 28.89% was obtained. In the bivariate analysis, factors associated with the development of hospital infections were: genital burns (RR 11.6; 95% CI 3.90-34.84; p <0.001), hypoalbuminemia (RR 0.07; 95% CI 0.03-0.16; p = <0.001), percentage of total body surface burned (RR 92.9; 95 CI % 2.78-310; p = 0.011) and the age of the patients (RR 1.02; IC95% 0,98-1,05; p=0.017). Conclusions. In our environment, the main factors associated with the development of in-hospital infections in great burns patients were genital burns, hypoalbuminemia, the percentage of total body surface burned and the age of the patients.

          Burn wound infections.

          Burns are one of the most common and devastating forms of trauma. Patients with serious thermal injury require immediate specialized care in order to minimize morbidity and mortality. Significant thermal injuries induce a state of immunosuppression that predisposes burn patients to infectious complications. A current summary of the classifications of burn wound infections, including their diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, is given. Early excision of the eschar has substantially decreased the incidence of invasive burn wound infection and secondary sepsis, but most deaths in severely burn-injured patients are still due to burn wound sepsis or complications due to inhalation injury. Burn patients are also at risk for developing sepsis secondary to pneumonia, catheter-related infections, and suppurative thrombophlebitis. The introduction of silver-impregnated devices (e.g., central lines and Foley urinary catheters) may reduce the incidence of nosocomial infections due to prolonged placement of these devices. Improved outcomes for severely burned patients have been attributed to medical advances in fluid resuscitation, nutritional support, pulmonary and burn wound care, and infection control practices.

            Infection control in the burn unit.

            The survival rates for burn patients have improved substantially in the past few decades due to advances in modern medical care in specialized burn centers. Burn wound infections are one of the most important and potentially serious complications that occur in the acute period following injury. In addition to the nature and extent of the thermal injury influencing infections, the type and quantity of microorganisms that colonize the burn wound appear to influence the future risk of invasive wound infection. The focus of medical care needs to be to prevent infection. The value of infection prevention has been acknowledged in organized burn care since its establishment and is of crucial importance. This review focuses on modern aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, management, and prevention of burn wound infections and sepsis. Crown Copyright © 2009. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

              Burn resuscitation: the results of the ISBI/ABA survey.

              There are valid concerns that burn shock resuscitation is inadequate; a tendency to over-resuscitate the patient seems to exist which may increase complications such as compartment syndrome. The purpose of this study was to survey members of the ISBI and ABA to determine current practices of burn resuscitation. A survey asking for practices of burn shock resuscitation was provided to all participants of a recent ABA meeting. Around the same time, the survey was sent to all members of the ISBI through the internet. The results of the 101 respondents (ABA--59, ISBI--42, approximately a 15% response rate) are described. Surveys were returned from all the continents except Africa. Respondents included directors (48%), staff physicians (19%), nurses (23%) and others. Most programs admitted adults (87%) and children (75%) with a mean of 289 admissions per year. The cut off to initiate resuscitation was 15% TBSA and most preferred peripheral IVs (70%) and central lines (47.5%). The Parkland formula was preferred (69.3%) while others were used: Brooke--6.9%, Galveston--8.9%, Warden--5.9%, and colloid 11.9%. Lactated Ringer's (LR) was the preferred solution (91.9%), followed by normal saline--5%, hypertonic saline--4%, albumin--20.8%, FFP--13.9%, and LR/NaHCO(3)--12.9%. Approximately half (49.5%) added colloid before 24h. Urine output is the major indicator of success (94.9%) while 22.7% use other monitors. Most (88.8%) feel their protocols work well, with 69.8% feel that it provides the right amount of fluid (24%--too much, 7%--too little). Despite this feeling, they still feel that they give more fluid than the formula in 55.1%, less than formula in 12.4% and the right amount in 32.6%. Approximately 1/3 use an oral resuscitation formula and 81.8% feel that an oral formula works for burns<15% TBSA. Large variations exist in resuscitation protocols but the Parkland formula using LR is still the dominant method. Most feel that their resuscitation protocol works well.
