@alaanibrahim@WRAPEMtweet I agree we also need other opportunities within our workplaces @alaanibrahim. We should have a look at what some of the UK departments are doing in this space. We all need more sustainable working arrangements. Lots more discussion and ideas needed in this space.
Which dressing is best for minor burns? This is often the most difficult question when managing minor burns in the ED. Sensible advice from Dr Carl Lisec (Burn Surgeon) @liseccarl who says any dressing is fine as long as you use it correctly. #qldas19
Burns Mx- Use Hartmann’s solution in 1st 8 hrs. Assess response to fluid resuscitation with urine output >0.5mL/kg/hr and aim for Hb 150mg/dL. Hypotension in the first 8 hours is usually not from the burn - assess for other causes. Dr Carl Lisec at QLD Autumn Symposium. #qldas19
Dr Carl Lisec - First 8 hours of burns management :
Hypotension is not due to burn
Use warm Hartmann’s
Keep patient warm
Measure fluid balance @QldAutumnSymp@acemonline#qldas19
@Kerryn_Rhodes @rulesrule1 Hi Kerryn. We meet during hours but not everyone comes. We then keep in touch via a what’s app group and email minutes of meetings around.
