Early and Thorough Wound Debridement Is Crucial for Treatment of Patients With Thermal Burns and para-Chloronitrobenzene Poisoning.
International Journal of Lower Extremity Wounds 2016 September
para-Chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB) is one of the important chemicals with high liposolubility and oxidizing properties. Heated p-CNB liquid can cause thermal injury by absorption over skin and wound and even methemoglobinemia by conversion of hemoglobin into methemoglobin. Severe methemoglobinemia is a life-threatening condition that demands immediate treatment. It is very rare for individuals to be injured by heated p-CNB, but they should be carefully attended to because of the peculiarities of this kind of injury. In the past 10 years, we received 5 patients who were injured by heated p-CNB. In addition to the intravenous administration of methylene blue, prompt and thorough wound management played a crucial role in the treatment of these critically ill patients, indicating the potential value of sufficient information for the clinical practitioners. The purpose of this article is to report our experience in the management of patients with thermal burns and p-CNB poisoning.
