Chemical injury:
Looks vary according to the cause of the wound. The
skin may be yellowish brown with a texture like fine
leather; blisters, ulcers, necrosis, or thick scarring.
General injury is deeper than it seems, percutaneously
and tissue damage can continue for up to 72 hours
after injury.
Electrical injury:
External cutaneous injury is less than under
necrosis. Appearance of wounds can vary
including in / out (explosive) flow wounds, burns
from proximal closed body flow movements, and
thermal wounds associated with burning clothing.
Examine burns for breadth by using Lund and Browder or
Rule of nine graphics.
Examine wound depth, which can:
a) Superficial partial thickness - involving the epidermis;
characterized by tenderness, slight swelling, and erythema
that pales with pressure.
d) Ego integrity
Anxiety, crying, challenging, denying, withdrawal and
anger.
c. Activity / rest
Limited susceptibility to motion in the affected
area, muscle mass disorders and tone changes.
d. Respiratory system
Assess the presence of hoarseness, coughing
wheezing, carbon particles in sputum, inability to
swallow oral secretions and cyanosis, indicative of
inhalation injury. Thoracic swelling may be
limited to chest circumference burns. Airway over
straidor or wheezing (obstruction associated with
laryngospasm, laryngeal edema). Breath sounds:
ringling (pulmonary edema), stridor (laryngeal
edema), airway secretions (ronhi).
e. Digestive system
Decreased bowel sounds or none, especially in
cutaneous burns greater than 20% as stress
reduction in gastric / peristalsis. Assess for
anorexia, nausea and vomiting.
f. Cardiovascular system
In burns of more than 20% APTT, hypotension
(shock) is found, decreased distal peripheral pulse
in the injured limb; general peripheral
vasoconstriction with loss of pulse, white and cold
skin (electric shock). Tachycardia (shock, anxiety,
pain), dysrhythmias (electric shock).
g. Neurosensory
Seizure activity (electric shock), corneal
laceration, retinal damage, decreased visual acuity
(electric shock). Tympanic membrane rupture
(electric shock), and paralysis (electrical injury to
nerve flow).
h. Elimination
Urinary bowel decreased / absent during the
emergency phase. The color may be reddish black
when myoglobin occurs, indicating deep muscle
damage. Diuresis (after capillary leakage and
liquid mobilization into the circulation).
