Abstract

Following the Bashkir train-gas pipeline disaster of 4 June 1989, US surgeons and nurses had an opportunity to join their Soviet counterparts at the Burn Unit at Children's Hospital 9 in Moscow in caring for the children. As a result of the joint effort, both the Soviet and US professionals came to understand the strengths and limits of each system of burn care. Joining strengths through mutual willingness to listen and cooperate left an elevated level of burn care at Children's Hospital.
