Good Outcomes After a Severity Triad: Systemic Complications, Bacterial and Fungal Infections in 3 Patients With Major Burns.

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Burn injuries resulting from domestic explosions involving liquefied petroleum gas present complex challenges in clinical management. We present 3 cases of patients with severe burn injuries, highlighting diverse presentations and complications encountered during their treatment. Despite significant morbidity, all patients demonstrated favorable outcomes, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive management strategies. Challenges included inhalation injury, microbial infections, thromboembolic complications, and acute kidney injury. Aggressive treatment modalities, including bronchoscopy-guided therapy, targeted antimicrobial therapy, and vigilant infection control, effectively addressed these complications. Multidisciplinary collaboration and adherence to evidence-based guidelines optimized outcomes. Continued research and innovation are needed to further enhance care and improve long-term outcomes for patients with severe burns.
