Grade IV is very severe. Thus there is complete death of tissue. The affected area up to charred muscle and bone. The patient comes burn shock and burn toxemia, caused by the decomposition of charred tissue and penetration of the decay products in the body. The favorable outcome of the treatment of these injuries has been delayed for several months.

Burn toxemia leads to intoxication of the organism, the decay products accumulate in tissues and cause severe lesions of all organs affected.

Burn shock in the first moments of defeat is characterized by a high motor and speech activity. The burned man was trying to run somewhere, says something. It often has fever, thirsty, but after the fluid intake occurs and vomiting. Usually the victim is conscious until the beginning of irreversible processes.

From the decaying tissues, the blood receives a large amount of potassium, which leads to malfunction of the heart. Another adverse point – the blood begins to thicken very quickly, which disturbs its circulation. Burn shock without timely started therapy aimed at restoration of blood flow and replenishing lost body fluids is fatal.

First aid for burns of any severity should be given at the scene. The first thing to do is to remove the source of destruction. The next required step is the cooling of the annealed surface water, and in the absence of a directed stream of cold air.

 Duration of cooling depends on the extent of damage, but in any case should not be less than 5 minutes. Is strictly forbidden to apply to the wounds of the grease and oil to pour any alcohol-containing solutions, urine, sour cream, puncture the blisters. It is also prohibited to free the affected area from the remnants of clothes and bandages, with the exception of special burns. Violations of these rules greatly exacerbate the course of illness and worsen the prognosis of the victim.
