    AbstractThe successful management of burns and related injuries requires a comprehensive team approach at a designated burn center. This team should consist of burn surgeons, burn nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, clinical nutritionists, social workers, chaplains, and other clinical consultants. This article focuses specifically on the management of thermal burns and inhalational injuries, with an emphasis on assessment, resuscitation, and critical care management. It also discusses special considerations related to burned trauma patients.
