Burn injuries due to pressurized aerosol cans: a tertiary centre experience

The Effect of Blast-Related Burn Injuries from Prolonged Field Care to Rehabilitation and Resilience: A Review of the Scientific Literature

“…A final subset of studies focused on types of blast-related burn exposures that are largely unrelated to military settings but that nevertheless might have lessons that are relevant in the military context. Related studies have chronicled the epidemiology of burn injuries from pressurized aerosol cans (Langbart and Vandervord, 2011), electrical equipment (Mashreky et al, 2011;Olaitan, Oseni, and Olakulehin, 2011), and fireworks in settings ranging from the United States (Sandvall et al, 2017;Stahlman and Taubman, 2018) to Iran (Shams Vahdati, Hemmate Gadim, and Mazouchian, 2016;Tavakoli et al, 2011;Vaghardoost et al, 2013). Among these, Stahlman and Taubman, 2018, found that 302 firework-related injuries were reported from 2008 to 2017 and that incidence of injury was higher among those who were U.S. Army members, those in enlisted rank, and those in combat-specific occupations.…”
