Precise clarification of burn-wound infections is conveyed in this sqadia.com medical video lecture. Starting this V-learning lecture from epidemiology and pathophysiology of burn-wound infection, light is also shed on clinical manifestations. Wound biopsies, microbiological cultures, blood cultures, and PCR are the diagnostic approaches discussed in this lecture along with treatment options encompassing antimicrobial agents and topical therapy.

▬ 📃 Epidemiology and Pathophysiology ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
At the onset of this section, information about epidemiology is presented. Between the years 2002 and 2011, the reported number of cases was 183,000 cases. Then talking about pathophysiology, after burning bacterial count reaches ~8.4 × 103 cfu/g on day 4. Along with HSV, P. Aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus also comes under the heading of causative organisms.

▬ 📜 Clinical Manifestations ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Clinical features of burn-wound infections indicate that sites of burn are frequently surrounded by a margin of erythema. Neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and altered mentation are also included in the clinical manifestations of burn-wound infections. Classification of burn-wound infections is given based on the excision site which includes burn-wound impetigo, burn-related surgical-wound infection, and burn-wound cellulitis.

▬ 📃 Diagnosis ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Wound biopsies are carried out for definitive diagnosis of burn-wound infections. Alongside, quantitative microbiological cultures and blood cultures are performed. To identify the specific pathogen, that is contributing to infection, PCR is used. Dr. Saima Mushtaq also describes how staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome arises.

▬ 📜 Treatment ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Burn-wound closure and burn-wound healing can be accomplished by a range of treatment options. Topical antimicrobial agents such as silver sulfadiazine cream, mafenide acetate cream, and nanocrystalline silver dressings. Topical Therapy made by the mixture of myostatin and silver sulfadiazine promotes rapid autolysis. Moreover, Dr. Saima Mushtaq sheds light on sub-eschar analysis and tetanus immunization.
