spurred on by wars and great fires.

The use of systemic antibiotics and topical silver therapy greatly reduced sepsis related mortality.

This along with the advent of antiseptic surgical techniques, burn depth classification and skin grafting allowed the excision and coverage of full-thickness burns which resulted in greatly improved survival rates. Advancements in the methods of assessing the surface area of burns paved way for more accurate fluid resuscitation, minimizing the effects of shock and avoiding fluid over-loading.

nutritional support and care of inhalation injuries further improved the outcome of burn patients.
