In 60 burned patients, the depth of injury was assessed clinically, and then surface temperature measurements were taken of the burn and of nearby unburned skin. The final diagnosis of burn depth was determined by the time taken to heal or by the findings at excision of the burn. The temperature difference between burned and unburned skin correlated with the depth of the injury. Overall diagnosis of burn depth was 60 per cent accurate by clinical assessment and 78 per cent accurate by measurement of surface temperature. Accuracy was greater when burns of the hand, face and feet, and burns seen late, were excluded.
对60名烧伤患者进行了临床烧伤深度评估，然后测量了烧伤部位及附近未烧伤皮肤的表面温度。最终烧伤深度诊断依据愈合所需时间或烧伤切除时的检查结果来确定。烧伤皮肤与未烧伤皮肤之间的温度差与损伤深度相关。通过临床评估，烧伤深度的总体诊断准确率为60%，通过表面温度测量，准确率为78%。排除手部、面部和足部烧伤以及延迟就诊的烧伤后，准确率更高。
