Abstract
Early surgical excision is likely to be the most significant individual variable to improve the outcome of a patient (adult or child) with a critical burn. Nevertheless, many nonburn physicians still want to apply to 1970 treatment paradigms to this population of injured patients. This episode will hopefully replace these falsehoods with fact supported in the literature.
