Abstract

Shock is one of the major complications and causes of death in the early stage of burns. Although burn shock is an old problem, its clinical treatment is often not timely nor standardized, resulting in the shock to pass unsteadily or even be difficult to correct, leading to early infection and organ complications. To standardize the prevention and treatment of burn shock, the expert group developed this consensus through discussions on major pathophysiology, clinical manifestations and diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment, monitoring as well as matters of concern and safety precautions. This consensus can be used as a reference for the prevention and treatment of burn shock, with the specific application being determined according to the actual situation of patients.
