Burn Classification Study Guide

Hey everyone!

How are you all doing? I hope everything is well. Sorry for the tinted marker board. I didn't realize how orange it was until I posted it.

I have so many more that I want to make but only so much time. This video is on burns. I focused on the classifications and little on intervention just to get your burn thinking. It's more informative review than mnemonic but I think the chart organization goes a long way! Enjoy! Good Luck!!

Hey everyone! I wanted to note that different sources will give you different information. A mild sunburn can be considered a 1st degree burn if there are no blisters present. If it's a more severe sunburn, it may be is red, blistered, or swollen. This would fall under a 2nd degree superficial partial thickness burn. Hope that helps!
