The following guidelines were developed by specialist staff working within the ACI Statewide Burn Injury Service (SBIS) from the tertiary burn units at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead (CHW), Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH) and Concord Repatriation General Hospital (CRGH). The guidelines are designed for use by staff working in these burn units, and clinicians working in other areas and facilities, to guide practice, not to replace clinical judgement.
