    AbstractFor optimal treatment of burns an understanding of the pathophysiological changes occurring locally and systemically after injury is necessary. Accurate estimation of burn size and depth as well as early treatment is essential. Knowledge of the circumstances of the accident and experience in diagnosing physical signs are required in terms of the need for intubation, treatment of poisoning and the occurrence of other trauma.
