Burn care is an area which has advanced relentlessly over the past decades with improved survival and quality of survival. However, there are many challenges which overshadow the successes. The translation of what we know into clinical practice remains a challenge due to issues on many levels from overcoming personal opinion to resource allocation. We live in a time of exponential increase in knowledge in diverse areas which could be harnessed to improve the lives of those suffering burn injuries. Breaking down silos in education training and research remain challenging and again the allocation of resource is key. Ultimately when the goal is "One World One Standard of Burn Care" the greatest challenge is in education with specific reference to burn injury prevention and first aid.
烧伤治疗领域在过去几十年中取得了飞速发展,患者的生存率和生活质量都得到了提高。然而,仍有许多挑战存在,给这些成就蒙上了阴影。我们所掌握的知识要转化为临床实践仍然具有挑战性,这是因为存在着许多层面的问题,从克服个人意见到资源分配等不一而足。我们正处在一个知识呈指数级增长的时代,各个领域的知识都可以被利用起来,以改善烧伤患者的生活。在教育培训和研究方面打破壁垒仍然具有挑战性,资源的分配仍是关键。当目标是“全球烧伤治疗统一标准”时,最大的挑战是在教育方面,特别是烧伤预防和急救教育。
