    AbstractThe Cochrane analysis of the use of albumin in critical illness has highlighted the need for more well-conducted studies on colloid use in burns. The lack of objectivity in the press regarding this material has compromised our ability to deliver those studies. The analysis provides no evidence that albumin is unsafe for the initial resuscitation of uncomplicated burns, and the fall in its use is more likely to be cost-related.
