Principle
of Systemic Treatment of BRT with MEBT/MEBO
Burn is a systemic disease caused by thermal
injury.
The changes in topical treatment directly affect
the systemic pathophysiological status.
BRT with MEBT/MEBO systemic treatment is
essentially different from conventional
surgical dry therapy.
While using BRT with MEBT/ MEBO, the protocol of
surgical dry therapy is forbidden.
Two principles should be followed in this
treatment on extensive deep burns:
1. In
the early stage,
a comprehensive antishock treatment principle is applied, which
involves enhancing cardiac function, protecting renal function and
supplementing effective blood volume according to the vital
signs.
2. In
the middle and later stages,
expectant treatment is applied, with a protocol of keeping a
water-electrolyte balance, nutritional support and maintaining a
comprehensive balance.
In the anti-infection
treatment, a large dose of
strong
and powerful broad-spectrum antibiotics should be used in the early
stage for 7–10 days and then withdrawn immediately, in order
to
protect and enhance the anti-infective function of the internal
organs.
For nutritional
supporting treatment, a protocol
of oral administration is desired.
Others are
dealt with according to the case.
