title: [Burns--introduction and organizational tasks].
abstract: A generally accepted treatment of severe burns has not yet been established. Important demands, such as early excision and avoidance of a granulating surface have not been asserted. Treatment frequently lasts too long, is too expensive, and results are disappointing. Organising preconditions are presented, increase of burn-centres and exact documentation of burns are postulated.
