Abstract
The experience in medical care and treatment of burned patients showed that adequate anti-shock infusion therapy can be established only 4-6 hours after the sustained trauma. However, even despite such a delay, many burned patients (75-80%) get well, due to the later adequate complex treatment controlled by experienced burn specialists [correction of combustiologists] in hospital units specially organized and equipped for this category of patients. Within the first 2-4 days after the trauma, it is recommended to distribute major accident victims between different specialized burn units, using specially equipped air and motor transportation vehicles.
