Abstract
The care of the patient with major burns in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a complex and challenging task. They differ from the other critical care patient groups in several ways. Temperature recording is an important parameter for monitoring the burns patients. In burn patients it is difficult to record temperature due to bulky dressing especially when patient is unconscious and oral temperature also cannot be recorded. And central methods of recording temperature may not be available and are costly. Infrared thermometry a form of non-contact temperature measurement method, offers several advantages over other conventional temperature measurement methods in victims of burn injuries. In this paper we are highlighting the importance of non-contact thermometer in burns patients.
