Clinical Atlas of Burn Management is a sequel to Principles and Practice of Burn Care. Beginning with an introduction to the causes and classification of burns, this atlas guides students and surgeons through the determination of the damage caused by the burn and how to manage the wound. Assisted by well-illustrated colour photographs, the book presents different types of injury, including electric burns, chemical burns and radiation.

Written by a multi-disciplinary team of authors, this manual is a comprehensive guide to wound care – its healing and management, treatment and also prevention. Divided into four sections, the book begins with an introduction to wound history, evolution and healing. The following chapters discuss general principles for wound management and then examine different types of wound in more depth, including radiation, diabetic foot infections, bites, vascular ulcers and pressure sores. The final section looks at other factors influencing wound management, such as nutrition, physiotherapy, oxygen therapy and regulated negative pressure therapy.
