ATI Chapter 76 Review: Burns

In this Advanced Med-Surg review, we break down burn injuries, including the causes, classification, and severity of burns. This episode covers burn depth, total body surface area (TBSA) calculations, and early recognition of inhalation injury and burn shock. We also review the phases of burn care, priority nursing interventions during the emergent phase, fluid resuscitation, wound management, infection prevention, and long-term rehabilitation. This focused review helps nursing students understand burn physiology and apply critical nursing priorities in burn management.
