TL;DR
The proposed tiered system identifies clinically distinct groups of operative burn cases based on injury severity and physiologic instability and it is proposed that implementing this framework in clinical practice may improve outcomes for patients with acute burns, facilitate more efficient allocation of anesthesia resources, and guide standardized educational structures for management of acute burn injuries.
Procedural sedation is essential for pediatric burn care, yet standardized, evidence-based regimens are lacking. This study characterizes the safety profile and pharmacological predictors of adverse events (AEs) in intensivist-led pediatric burn sedations. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 626 procedural sed...

INTRODUCTION
Pediatric burns are common, yet practical tools that stratify presentation features into age-specific risk remain limited.
OBJECTIVE
To characterize pediatric burn presentations and derive clinically interpretable, age-specific total body surface area (TBSA) thresholds, with absolute-risk tables, for fev...

OBJECTIVE
To examine the association between the timing of surgical excision and survival in severely ill burn patients.
SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA
The optimal timing of surgical excision in severe burns remains uncertain. Early excision may limit systemic inflammation but may also increase hemodynamic instability.

STUDY DESIGN
Retrospective cohort study.
INTRODUCTION
Cell saver (CS) is widely used in spinal fusion to reduce exposure to allogeneic transfusion, which carries risks such as infection and prolonged hospitalization. Pediatric spinal fusion is frequently associated with significant intraoperative blood loss. Concerns...

Objective Electrical burns are associated with deep tissue damage and a high risk of limb loss. Early identification of patients at risk for amputation remains challenging, as traditional predictors such as voltage level and total body surface area (TBSA) may not adequately reflect tissue injury. This study aimed to ev...

BackgroundEfforts to explain the causes of variation in emergency general surgery (EGS) outcomes have focused on surgeon-level factors such as technical proficiency and individual caseload. The present work examined the association of institutional structure and hospital-wide quality with outcomes of EGS operations.Stu...
