Pain Management during Bromelain-Based Enzymatic Debridement (NexoBrid) in a USA Adult Burn Center.

Outside the United States, bromelain-based enzymatic debridement (BBED) has become an effective tool for the removal of burn eschar. A primary concern with BBED is that it is a painful procedure requiring appropriate analgesia. The purpose of this study was to describe our experience using NexoBrid (NXB), with a particular focus on pain management.

A PREVENTIVE TOOL FOR PREDICTING BLOODSTREAM INFECTIONS IN CHILDREN WITH BURNS.

Introduction: Despite significant advances in pediatric burn care, bloodstream infections (BSIs) remain a compelling challenge during recovery. A personalized medicine approach for accurate prediction of BSIs before they occur would contribute to prevention efforts and improve patient outcomes. Methods: We analyzed the blood transcriptome of severely burned (total burn surface area [TBSA] ≥20%) patients in the multicenter Inflammation and Host Response to Injury ("Glue Grant") cohort.

STARplasty for Reconstruction of the Burned Axilla.

Background: Postburn axillary contractures are common and significantly impact quality of life. Simple release combined with split thickness skin grafting necessitates a donor site, requires immobilization, and may result in poor functional outcome. Common methods of adjacent tissue rearrangement are not well designed to treat broad linear contractures.

Preclinical evaluation of robotic-assisted sentinel lymph node fluorescence imaging.

Unlabelled: An ideal substance to provide convenient and accurate targeting for sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping during robotic-assisted surgery has yet to be found. We used an animal model to determine the ability of the FireFly camera system to detect fluorescent SLNs after administration of a dual-labeled molecular imaging agent.

Methods: We injected the footpads of New Zealand White rabbits with 1.
