Abstract

Burn trauma remains a difficult problem because of the difficulties in treating the victims, prolonged treatment, the high mortality rate, and sometimes unacceptable results of treatment. Pediatric burns account to nearly a fourth of all the burn injuries around the world. Because of emphasis on early resuscitation, the mortality due to hypovolemic shock has come down drastically. Majority of burn related deaths are due to sepsis. There is a wide range of organisms that can lead to sepsis in burn patients. Burn sepsis due to spore bacteria is rare but one should keep the possibility as one of the causes of sepsis in pediatric burn cases.
