🔍 Key Concepts

• Complications of thermal burns (especially over a large area of the body) • Difference between relieving symptoms (like pain) vs. preventing life‑threatening complications • How damaged skin affects the body’s defenses after a burn

💭 Think About

• Which complication of extensive burns is most dangerous to the patient’s survival in the hours and days after the injury? • What is the main protective function of healthy skin, and what happens when a large area of that protection is lost? • Among the choices, which condition is most likely to lead to serious systemic illness if not prevented or controlled?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option relates to the body’s defense against microorganisms. • Decide which option, if not prevented, can lead to sepsis or widespread illness, especially in a shipboard environment. • Separate what is important but secondary (symptom relief) from what is critical for survival and long‑term outcome.
