Deepening the understanding of the diagnostic system and therapeutic strategy for burn sepsis

Burn patients with large area of skin defect are prone to cause wound infection, severe fluid loss, and hypermetabolism, etc, which lead to sequential dysfunction of multiple systems and easily induce severe systemic infections and sepsis. At present, sepsis has been the leading causes of death in severe burn patients, and its early diagnosis and timely treatment are critical for successful treatment of patients. As burn sepsis has unique pathophysiological characteristics, the diagnostic criteria for general sepsis lack specificity for burn sepsis. Therefore, to understand the pathogenesis of burn will help deepen the understanding of the diagnostic system and interventional way of burn sepsis, thus developing more precise and intelligent therapeutic strategy.
