SUTDIES ON SUB-FABRIC BURNS: THE RELATIONSHIP OF SURFACE APPEARANCE AND DEPTH OF DAMAGE A METHOD OF STUDY, PRELIMINARY RESULTS, AND OBSERVATIONS OF WOUND HEALING
Relationships between surface appearance and actual depth of damage of sub-fabric burns have been established for only a few burns. Since surface appearance has been the most widely used criterion for evaluating the ability of fabrics to protect against radiant energy, it is of some importance to know whether or not bare skin and sub-fabric burns of similar appearance are of comparable severity. In this experiment it was found that both types of burn when produced by one second exposures and when graded 3/sup +/ moderate because of their surface appearance are, indeed, equally severe. Observations on healing of the two types of burn suggest no differences in the manner or rate of tissue restoration. (auth)
