Burns fluid study: comparing two resuscitation methods
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a new computer-guided tool called Burn Navigator™ is better than the standard Parkland Formula for giving fluids to adults with major burns. The goal is to see which method leads to better recovery.

This trial tests a specific breathing machine mode and fluid management plan for adults with severe burns on at least 20% of their body. It aims to see if this approach helps recovery while on a ventilator.
This trial tests whether giving fresh frozen plasma early helps treat burn shock and improve blood vessel function in adults with large burns. It may reduce the amount of fluid needed and prevent complications.
This trial tests two different ways to help burn patients breathe through a ventilator. It compares a standard approach (BiPAP) with a newer method (flow-controlled ventilation) to see which one works better.
This trial tests a special camera imaging system to assess burns on the head, hands, or feet. It may help determine if these burns can be imaged accurately to guide treatment decisions.
This trial tests an experimental medicine for people with small burns (10% or less of body surface). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps healing. The study has two phases: one for people getting skin grafts, and another for recent dermal burns.
This trial tests a blood-filtering device (Efferon LPS NEO) that removes harmful substances from the blood of children with severe thermal burns. It may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
