Acute renal failure in burns.

Abstract

We present the combined experience of a burns unit and a renal dialysis unit in treating acute renal failure in burn injury patients. A total of 28 cases have been treated of whom 4 regained normal renal function. We would like to emphasize the following points which may improve the usually very poor prognosis: early diagnosis, early daily haemodialysis, adequate feeding and the early amputation of non viable limbs. A search of the literature reveals that only 11 previously reported cases of burns injury patients being successfully dialysed for acute renal failure.
