PMID: 32123911
| Category | Immediate Consultation + Consider Transfer | Consultation Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal Burns | Full-thickness burns; Partial thickness β₯10% TBSA; Any deep partial/full-thickness on face, hands, genitalia, feet, perineum, or over joints; Comorbidities or concomitant trauma; Poorly controlled pain | Partial-thickness <10% TBSA; All potentially deep burns of any size |
| Inhalation Injury | All suspected inhalation injuries | Facial flash burns, singed nasal hairs, smoke exposure (without confirmed inhalation) |
| Pediatrics (β€14 yrs or <30 kg) | All pediatric burns may benefit from referral (pain, dressing needs, rehab, non-accidental trauma) | β |
| Chemical Burns | All chemical injuries | β |
| Electrical Burns | All high-voltage (β₯1,000V) injuries; Lightning injury | Low-voltage (<1,000V): consultation + follow-up in burn center to screen for delayed onset and vision problems |
10% TBSA partial- or full-thickness burns
| Old Thinking | Current Evidence |
|---|---|
| "Transfer all full-thickness burns" | Full-thickness β₯5% TBSA β transfer; <5% β consult/outpatient |
| Binary: transfer or don't | Three-tier: transfer / telehealth consult / outpatient follow-up |
| Children same as adults | All pediatric burns may benefit from referral regardless of size |
| Low-voltage electric burns = minor | Low-voltage needs follow-up at burn center (delayed symptoms, eye problems) |
| Only ABA 10-point list | Add: frostbite, SJS/TEN, necrotizing fasciitis |
| Parkland 4 mL/kg | ABA CPG 2024 recommends starting at 2 mL/kg (Modified Brooke) |
