Fluid resuscitation for burns is crucial to replace lost fluids, maintain circulation, and prevent shock. The goal is to restore fluid balance and support organ function.

Key principles:

1. Assess burn severity and size
2. Calculate fluid needs using formulas (e.g., Parkland formula)
3. Administer fluids (crystalloids like lactated Ringer's)
4. Monitor urine output, vital signs, and perfusion

The Parkland formula calculates fluid needs based on burn size and weight.

Would you like more details on the Parkland formula or fluid resuscitation protocols?
