A patient with a burn injury can be treated in any hospital but severe cases as well as children need to be transferred to a burning center. There are also special criteria to follow, who need to be transferred. A burn is an injury of the skin, which protects us from infection or other outside dangerous agents.
We will concentrate on Silver Nitrate treatment and the results achieved. Then I will take a look on local and early surgical treatment in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Department of Arad County Clinical Hospital, to find out benefits of Nikolsky-Batman method used in this hospital. We will treat patients with burns withSilver Nitrate treatment. Number of patients will be about 100. Results will be presented in conclusion.

Objectives and Key Themes
The main objective of this thesis is to compare the effectiveness, pain levels, and cost-efficiency of local burn treatment using silver nitrate (the Nikolsky-Batman method) with modern burn treatment methods. The research compares Modern European, Russian, and Post-Soviet European practices. The study aims to determine the optimal approach for treating burns.
- Comparative analysis of silver nitrate treatment versus modern burn treatment techniques.
- Evaluation of the effectiveness of the Nikolsky-Batman method.
- Assessment of pain levels associated with different treatment methods.
- Cost-benefit analysis of various burn treatment approaches.
- Exploration of historical and contemporary burn treatment practices across different regions.
Chapter Summaries
Chapter I: This chapter lays the groundwork for the research by providing a comprehensive overview of burn etiology, classification, and treatment methods. It begins by defining burns and detailing the pathophysiological processes involved. Different classification systems for burns are explored, focusing on those relevant to local treatment options. The chapter then delves into open and closed burn treatment methods. It dedicates significant attention to local burn treatment, including methods such as Dermazin cream application and early surgical interventions. The core focus, however, is on local burn treatment with silver nitrate, specifically the Nikolsky-Batman method, including its pharmacodynamics, advantages, and limitations. This detailed exploration of existing literature serves as a crucial foundation for the clinical research presented in the subsequent chapter.
Chapter II: This chapter presents the methodology and results of a clinical study comparing silver nitrate treatment (Nikolsky-Batman method) with other modern burn treatment methods. The methodology section details the research questions, the selection of patients, and the statistical methods used for data analysis. The study design included approximately 100 burn patients treated at the Arad County Clinical Hospital. The results section presents the findings of the clinical research, providing a comparison of the effectiveness of the Nikolsky-Batman method against other widely used local treatment approaches. This comparative analysis focuses on the clinical outcomes, pain levels experienced by patients, and the overall cost-effectiveness of each treatment. The chapter concludes by synthesizing the obtained data to draw preliminary conclusions about the efficacy of silver nitrate treatment in comparison to other available treatments, without revealing any final conclusions.
