TBSA: the Burn Surgery and Critical Care Podcast

As we continue through the first 48 hours of burn resuscitation, we're going to take a side bar. Today's podcast episode is a journal club format to ask the question of when we should be starting CRRT. There is a lot of heterogeneity in clinical practice, and there is lots of opinions in the space.
Come along with Jake and Luke as they walkthrough the state of the science, what it says--and what it does NOT say--about CRRT, and help us ask the question of when is the right time to start CRRT.

A major aspect of burn care is managing AKI. Adept management of CRRT by burn providers is critical for burn survival. Listen in as Jake and Luke walkthrough AKI and CRRT use in the burn patient population.
Take a listen!

Hello, fellow burn practitioners!

This episode is all about electrolyte derangements. We can't have this discussion without a deep dive on hypophosphatemia. The deleterious effects of hypophosphatemia cannot be stressed enough. Tag along with Jake and Luke as they unpack the pathophysiology of these electrolyte issues and how to address them in clinical practice.

Surgical nutrition is one of the unique aspects of burn ICU care that truly sets itself apart from the management of other critically ill patients. Join Jake and Luke as they unpack the science behind nutritional support, current guideline recommendations, and a discussion on the importance of GI prophylaxis.

Check out our latest episode on the unique--but critical management steps--of inhalational injuries.

ARDS is a complex and highly morbid pathology that effects all ICU patients. Burn patients have their own fare share of ARDS incidence. Listen to Jake and Luke do a deep dive on the medical literature of ARDS management for critically ill burn patients.

Episode 8 drops at midnight tonight. Take a listen to follow on with Jake and Luke as they walk through the complexities of burn resuscitation in the first 48 hours after injury!

In this episode, Luke and Jake discuss their individual approaches to pain, analgesia, and sedation in burn patients.

We're nearing the end of our primary survey review. Contained in this episode are real life insights from Luke and Jake on how to package and prepare patients for transport. Also, we evaluate the ABA Transfer Criteria to help providers decide on who they can keep local and who needs to get shipped out to the regional burn center.

During burn resuscitation, you may find an acutely delirious patient who has profound altered mental status after being in a structure fire or exposed to smoke. In this clinical scenario, you have to be on the look out for two main toxidromes that are assessed during the "D" phase of the primary survey; namely, these are carbon monoxide poisoning and cyanide toxicity.

Follow along with Luke and Jake as the discuss the in's and out's of how these patients present, how to evaluate for them, and how to treat them.
