Non-termic skin losses at the Prague Burn Centre through the years 1998 -2008
Pintar, David ; Zajíček, Robert (advisor)
Exfoliative loses of the skin are rare, but potentially lethal disorders that includes toxical epidermal necrolysis and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome. They should be considered in a differential diagnosis and a quick transfer to the burn center is essential. The level of care and the effectiveness of the treatment at the burn unit significantly decreases the morbidity and mortality of these diseases. A transport of the patient proceeds with a time delay and the usage of the systemic corticosteroids at the previous hospital unit is frequent, according to the results of our clinical study. TEN patients are often unsuccesfully treated at the different units, mostly at the dermatological clinics and the infection diseases clinics, where the treatment of the involved skin surface is insufficient and corticosteroids are often administered. This evidence indicates that there is a requisiteness of an wider education intended for the medical public, especially for the medical members who may have a greater probability of encountering TEN patients.
