Chinese burn medicine began in the " Great Leap Forward" movement, with the mark of the successful rescue of Qiu Caikang in Guangci Hospital (now known as Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to the Medical School of Shanghai Jiao Tong University), Shanghai. With the fading of the " Great Leap Forward" movement in 1962, medical staff of some burn bases such as Southwest Hospital of the Seventh Military Medical University (now known as the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University) made a comprehensive summary on burn treatment, forming a set of original effective treatment protocols, which led to the improvement of burn treatment level. The stamp-like auto-allo intermingled skin grafting was created during that period, followed by the creation of an approach called " to embed small pieces of autogenic skin into the holes of a large sheet of allogenic skin" in Guangci Hospital, Shanghai. Owing to these approaches, the eschar of extensive burns was excised in multiple times, which led to the improvement of the cure level for extensive deep burn. Since then, the cure rate of burns of China continued to be the first in the world. Unfortunately, with the beginning of the " Great Cultural Revolution" , the development of Chinese burn medicine was interrupted and stopped. With the founding of the " Revolutionary Committee" in 1969, the Chinese burn medicine just started to recover. After 1978, the Chinese burn medicine began to rise rapidly again. Since then, the theoretic research on burns has been conducted in China, just as a follower at the beginning, and then as a runner in 1990s′, but as a leader in 2000s′ in some fields such as inhalation injury, sepsis, and wound healing, etc. At present, the clinical cure rate of burns in China is ranked in the leading position in the world, and the theoretical research on burns is also among the advanced ranks in the world.
