Assessment and Diagnosis of Chronic Pain Syndromes

The majority of small burns can be effectively treated in an outpatient setting and recover with no need for intervention. A precise classification of burns is essential to ensuring appropriate care. Thermal burns are injuries to the skin brought on by extreme heat, usually from coming into touch with hot objects, liquids, steam, or flames. The majority of burns are not severe, and patients can receive care at nearby hospitals or as outpatients. Specialized burn centers treat about 6.5 percent of all burn cases. The amount of burned body surface area, the degree of the burns, and the unique characteristics of each patient—such as age, previous injuries, or other medical issues—are taken into consideration when deciding whether to transfer and treat a patient at a burn center.
