Résumé

Infections are the leading cause of mortality in burn patients who survive their initial resuscitation. Burn injury leads to immunosuppression and a dysregulated inflammatory response which can have a prolonged impact. Early surgical excision along with support of the multidisciplinary burn team has improved mortality in burn patients. The authors review diagnostic and therapeutic challenges as well as strategies for management of burn related infections.
