Scars and Contractures

The Basics of Burn Care Project is a joint effort between hospitals, researchers and clinicians working in burn care. The project aims to improve healthcare for all patients with burn injuries around the world. One of the purposes of the project is to provide interactive educational resources that are globally accessible to all paramedics, doctors, and surgeons. To achieve these goals, the parties involved have jointly developed an eBook, called ‘Basics of Burn Care’. 


This book contains medical information, case examples, pictures, and videos about the treatment of burns. When publishing this information, the privacy rights and copyrights of patients have been respected.
