Review of burn research for the year 2011.
The year 2011 was another robust year for burn research. Over 1100 articles were published on a wide range of burn injury and treatment topics. In this review, we highlight some of the interesting and potentially influential research in the following areas: critical care, infection, inhalation injury, epidemiology, wound characterization and treatment, nutrition and metabolism, pain management, burn reconstruction, psychology, and rehabilitation. As in years past, burn injury research reflects the multidisciplinary and holistic care that is needed to treat this challenging injury condition.
