Abstract
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 11 million people suffer from burns every year, and 180,000 die from them. A burn is a condition in which heat, chemical substances, an electrical current or other factors cause tissue damage. Burns mainly affect the skin, but can also affect deeper tissues such as bones or muscles. When burned, the skin loses its main functions, such as protection from the external environment, pathogens, evaporation and heat loss. Depending on the stage of the burn, the patient's condition and the cause of the burn, we need to choose the most appropriate treatment. Personalization and multidisciplinary collaboration are key to the successful management of burn patients. In this comprehensive review, we have collected and discussed the available treatment options, focusing on recent advances in topical treatments, wound cleansing, dressings, skin grafting, nutrition, pain and scar tissue management.

Abstract
Burn injuries can affect patients from all walks of life and represent a significant healthcare problem globally. The skin is the largest organ of the body and consequences of injury range of minor pain to severe end-organ dysfunction and even death. The acute assessment and management of burn-injured patients is a critical part of their short-term and long-term outcomes and often benefit from specialty, multidisciplinary care. Local wound care and appropriate excision and grafting are important parts of managing the functional, cosmetic, and physiologic derangements caused by burn injuries. Large burns also require judicious fluid resuscitation. Electrical, chemical, and inhalational injuries are less common than thermal burns but require additional care and are often associated with increased morbidity.

Abstract
Severe burn injury affects the body in many devastating ways, the most severe being systemic inflammatory response syndrome. This results in a myriad of effects like increasing capillary permeability, thereby fluid loss. It also causes a surge in inflammatory mediators like interleukin (IL)-6, which further increases the capillary leak and fluid loss. This results in refractory hypotension in patients despite adequate fluid resuscitation. Plasma exchange has been used in the management of a number of illnesses with a significant inflammatory component, and, therefore can be considered to have a role in burn injury. In our article, we would like to share our experience of using therapeutic plasma exchange therapy in burn patient.

Abstract
Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is a therapeutic intervention that separates plasma from blood cells to remove pathological factors or to replenish deficient factors. The use of TPE is increasing over the last decades. However, despite a good theoretical rationale and biological plausibility for TPE as a therapy for numerous diseases or syndromes associated with critical illness, TPE in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting has not been studied extensively. A group of eighteen experts around the globe from different clinical backgrounds used a modified Delphi method to phrase key research questions related to "TPE in the critically ill patient". These questions focused on: (1) the pathophysiological role of the removal and replacement process, (2) optimal timing of treatment, (3) dosing and treatment regimes, (4) risk-benefit assumptions and (5) novel indications in need of exploration. For all five topics, the current understanding as well as gaps in knowledge and future directions were assessed. The content should stimulate future research in the field and novel clinical applications.

Abstract
Burn shock and acute fluid resuscitation continue to spark intense interest and debate among burn clinicians. Following a major burn injury, fluid resuscitation of burn shock is life-saving, but paradoxically can also be a source of increased morbidity and mortality because of the unintended consequence of systemic edema formation. Considerable research over the past two decades has been devoted to understanding the mechanisms of edema formation, and to develop strategies to curb resuscitation fluids and limit edema development. Recognition of burn endotheliopathy - injury to the endothelium's glycocalyx layer- is one of the most important recent developments in our understanding of burn shock pathophysiology. Newer monitoring approaches and resuscitation endpoints, along with alternative resuscitation strategies to crystalloids alone, such as administration of albumin, or plasma, or high dose ascorbic acid, have had mixed results in limiting fluid creep. Clear demonstration of improvements in outcomes with all of these approaches remains elusive. This comprehensive review article on burn shock and acute resuscitation accompanies the American Burn Association's State of the Science meeting held in New Orleans, LA on November 2-3, 2021 and the Proceedings of that conference published in this journal.

Abstract
The problem of fluid creep has generated renewed interest in the use of colloids during acute burn resuscitation. Currently, human albumin solution is usually chosen as the resuscitation colloid. However, human plasma was a fundamental component of numerous burn resuscitation formulas historically, but it largely fell out of favor due to concerns surrounding transmission of infectious viruses. Nevertheless, plasma is an effective volume expander which has been demonstrated to reduce overall volume requirements during burn resuscitation. Furthermore, plasma may have beneficial effects on the endothelium by diminishing the microvascular leak that follows a major burn injury. Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is now much safer from a disease transmission standpoint, and newer forms of solvent-detergent-treated plasma and lyophilized plasma offer potentially even greater safety and efficacy. The use of FFP and newer forms of plasma, which have not been extensively studied, should be investigated as potential adjuncts to acute burn resuscitation.

Abstract
Burn injuries are under-appreciated injuries that are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Burn injuries, particularly severe burns, are accompanied by an immune and inflammatory response, metabolic changes and distributive shock that can be challenging to manage and can lead to multiple organ failure. Of great importance is that the injury affects not only the physical health, but also the mental health and quality of life of the patient. Accordingly, patients with burn injury cannot be considered recovered when the wounds have healed; instead, burn injury leads to long-term profound alterations that must be addressed to optimize quality of life. Burn care providers are, therefore, faced with a plethora of challenges including acute and critical care management, long-term care and rehabilitation. The aim of this Primer is not only to give an overview and update about burn care, but also to raise awareness of the ongoing challenges and stigmata associated with burn injuries.

Abstract
The American Society for Apheresis (ASFA) Journal of Clinical Apheresis (JCA) Special Issue Writing Committee is charged with reviewing, updating and categorizing indications for the evidence-based use of therapeutic apheresis (TA) in human disease. Since the 2007 JCA Special Issue (Fourth Edition), the committee has incorporated systematic review and evidence-based approaches in the grading and categorization of apheresis indications. This Eighth Edition of the JCA Special Issue continues to maintain this methodology and rigor in order to make recommendations on the use of apheresis in a wide variety of diseases/conditions. The JCA Eighth Edition, like its predecessor, continues to apply the category and grading system definitions in fact sheets. The general layout and concept of a fact sheet that was introduced in the Fourth Edition, has largely been maintained in this edition. Each fact sheet succinctly summarizes the evidence for the use of TA in a specific disease entity or medical condition. The Eighth Edition comprises 84 fact sheets for relevant diseases and medical conditions, with 157 graded and categorized indications and/or TA modalities. The Eighth Edition of the JCA Special Issue seeks to continue to serve as a key resource that guides the utilization of TA in the treatment of human disease.

Abstract
The Special Interest Groups of the American Burn Association provide a forum for interested members of the multidisciplinary burn team to congregate and discuss matters of mutual interest. At the 47th Annual Meeting of the American Burn Association in Chicago, IL, the Fluid Resuscitation Special Interest Group sponsored a special symposium on burn resuscitation. The purpose of the symposium was to review the history, current status, and future direction of fluid resuscitation of patients with burn shock. The reader will note several themes running through the following presentations. One is the perennial question of the proper role for albumin or other fluid-sparing strategies. Another is the unique characteristics of the pediatric burn patient. A third is the need for multicenter trials of burn resuscitation, while recognizing the obstacles to conducting randomized controlled trials in this setting.

Abstract
Thermal injury of humans causes arguably the most severe perturbations in physiology that can be experienced. These physiologic derangements start immediately and can persist in some form until months or even years after the burn wounds are healed. Burn shock, marked activation of the systemic inflammatory response, multiple-organ failure, infection, and wound failure are just a few of the insults that may require management by the intensivist. The purpose of this article is to review recent advances in the critical care management of thermally injured patients.

Abstract
Burns and environmental injuries are common as primary or secondary problems in survivors of natural disasters, terrorist incidents, and combat operations. In recent years, intensive military medical experience has resulted in substantial progress in treatment of these important problems. This article reviews practical applications of this new knowledge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of a single 6-hour session of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF) was evaluated in terms of decreased norepinephrine (NE) requirements, progressive refractory hypotension and hypoperfusion by the fourth hour, and observed versus expected hospital mortality in patients with refractory severe septic shock. METHODS A prospective cohort study conducted at the intensive care unit with 31 patients suffering from severe septic shock (NE dose ≥ 0.3 μg kg min to maintain mean arterial pressure 70-80 mm Hg and lactic acidosis) and refractory to treatments recommended by Surviving Sepsis Campaign, 2008. All patients were subjected to a single short-term 6-hour HVHF with a goal-directed protocol. Changes in NE dose, hemodynamic, metabolic, and respiratory parameters were measured at the onset (t0), 4 (t4) and 6 hours (t6) during HVHF. Patients were considered responders if by t4 of HVHF, they showed a decrease in NE dose ≥ 50%, maintaining mean arterial pressure 80 mm Hg to 70 mm Hg. RESULTS : Twenty-five of the 31 patients responded to HVHF treatment (responders), whereas 6 did not (nonresponders). In the responders group, a decrease in NE dose was observed by t4 (1.3 ± 0.5 μg kg min). This beneficial effect was maintained by t6 of treatment. Hemodynamic, metabolic, and respiratory parameters and other organic function indicators were also significantly improved by t4 and maintained by t6. Hospital mortality (45.16%) was significantly lower than that predicted by Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (>90%): 83% for nonresponders versus 36% for responders. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that a single session of short-term 6-hour HVHF in patients with refractory severe septic shock reduces NE dose requirements and improves organic function already by the fourth hour of treatment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Fluid resuscitation following burn injury must support organ perfusion with the least amount of fluid necessary and the least physiological cost. Under resuscitation may lead to organ failure and death. With adoption of weight and injury size-based formulas for resuscitation, multiple organ dysfunction and inadequate resuscitation have become uncommon. Instead, administration of fluid volumes well in excess of historic guidelines has been reported. A number of strategies including greater use of colloids and vasoactive drugs are now under investigation to optimize preservation of end organ function while avoiding complications which can include respiratory failure and compartment syndromes. Adjuncts to resuscitation, such as antioxidants, are also being investigated along with parameters beyond urine output and vital signs to identify endpoints of therapy. Here we briefly review the state-of-the-art and provide a sample of protocols now under investigation in North American burn centers.

Abstract
Research in burn care for the calendar year 2009 was robust and diverse with >1400 research articles published on a wide range of topics. In this review, the authors highlight some innovative and potentially impactful research related to the overall care of burn- injured patients. The authors grouped articles according to the following categories: critical care, infection, inhalation injury, epidemiology, psychology, wound characterization and treatment, nutrition and metabolism, pain and itch management, burn reconstruction, and rehabilitation. They found that the holistic nature of burn care is reflected in the diverse research performed in 2009 throughout the world and that this research has provided important evidence that has improved or will improve burn care overall.
