In honor of the memory of Euton Murphy

The Campio Burns Group has lost a dear friend and Secretary of the Board, Euton Murphy who passed away on 4 July 2012. We salute him for his support, input and hands-on attitude and spirit. We will miss his enthusiasm and energy, his honesty, integrity and gift to see the positive in every challenging situation. He was unselfish.....and thats just a fraction of who he was. We are the better for sharing paths, be it shorter than we anticipated. Our thoughts are with the family of this amazing soldier who walked and walked and walked.......

The first 48 hours after a burn

The first 48 hours after a burn injury has occurred are the most critical. The challenge for healthcare professionals is to get patients through the first stages of recovery by preventing fluid loss, and preventing and or controlling infection. Infections are a serious threat to burn patients. In the first 48 hours patients will lose fluids from the vessels, sodium chloride and protein which flow into the injured area causing blisters, swelling, low urine output and low blood pressure. Doctors combat these effects by providing patients with fluids, electrolytes, antibiotics, pain medication, tetanus vaccination and often inserting a catheter. Once the patient has been stabilized doctors and nurses begin cleaning the wounds to prepare them to be covered. Burn patients will continue to lose fluids until their wounds have been covered. Wounds may be covered using ointment and a dressing. However, for more severe wounds a skin graft may be needed. Skin grafts present complications

Gratitude......without it you are likely to fail
