Burn injury haemostasis and immunology are described comprehensively, in terms of the involvement of kallikrein/antiproteases anti-kallikrein system. The plasma prekallikrein level correlates with prognosis and infection. The kallikrein, active on angio-haemostasis, depress cellular immunity. A test to monitor the restoration E-rosette formation is described. The level of antithrombin III and alpha-2-macroglobulin antithrombins and main-anti-kallikreins correlates with prognosis for initial therapy, the use of these proteins is discussed.
