Burn injuries are the third leading cause of accidental death for all age groups in the United States, despite advancements in treatment and prevention. For children and young adults, burns are the leading cause of death in the home. Yet burn fatalities represent only a small fraction of the more than 1.25 million burn injuries reported in the United States each year. For many burn victims, recovery involves a long and painful period of reconstruction. Burns Sourcebook offers the layperson information about various types of burns and scalds, including burn statistics and types and degrees of burns. It describes short-term and long-term treatment options, including tissue reconstruction and plastic surgery. The book also includes safety and prevention suggestions. Emergency procedures and first aid recommendations are provided to help readers respond quickly and effectively to burn accidents.
