Abstract

The experience of pain during a severe burn is multifactorial, both in the typology of the burn and in the circumstances of its occurrence. Third-degree burns are painless as the dermis and its nociception sensors are damaged. After a severe burn, from initial management, to home care, to a long hospital stay, pain evolves with its etiology and requires specific management.

Keywords: analgesia; analgésie; brûlure grave; douleur; neuropathie; neuropathy; pain; sedation; severe burn; sédation.
