Abstract

In the early stage of severe burn, ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by fluid loss and fluid resuscitation and changes in nerve and body fluid caused by stress may lead to severe oxidative damage, which is one of the important mechanisms of multiple organ injury. The research progress of oxidative injury from reactive oxygen species and antioxidant therapy in the early stage of severe burn is reviewed in this paper.
