Critical Care of Burns, Plastic and Dermatological Emergencies: New Threats, New Solutions
This focused study day brings together leading clinicians to share current insights and practical advances in the critical care management of burns, plastics and dermatological Emergencies. Sessions will explore evolving injury patterns, including inhalation, electrical, and chemical burns, alongside new approaches to fluid resuscitation and metabolic optimisation. Delegates will gain insight for best practice for early referral and initial management, discuss preparedness for mass casualty scenarios, and examine complex dermatological and surgical emergencies such as SJS/TEN and necrotising fasciitis.
The day concludes with a session on psychological trauma, emphasising resilience and wellbeing across patient and team care.
By integrating evidence-based updates with real-world application, this programme aims to strengthen clinical decision-making, multidisciplinary coordination, and preparedness across critical care and burn services.
