abstract="It is important for physicians treating children to be aware of unique presentation that require expertise and knowledge. Two areas of importance when caring for traumatized children are Thermal Burn Injuries, and Hypothermia. Burns commonly result in morbidity in children; as such, the appropriate identification of the severity of the burn and appropriate management are integral to minimize the complications of burns during the acute phase. Attention to proper fluid management is paramount. Knowledge of types of solutions to use during Burn treatment is important. The evolution of wound management with newer biologic dressings and skin analogues for optimal skin recovery is discussed. Likewise, knowledge of treatment of accidental hypothermia with and without an asphyxial event is important. Clinicians needs to identify hypothermia immediately and be aware of the overall management utilizing aggressive rewarming and cardiopulmonary resuscitation to help improve the survival of these critically ill children.<br><br>Copyright© Bentham Science Publishers; For any queries, please email at epub@benthamscience.org.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
