Care in patients with epidermal necrolysis in burn units. A nursing perspective

ConclusionsNursing care in patients with epidermal necrolysis varied between burn units in Spain. Differences and similarities were observed when compared with burn units in other countries. Genital and ocular care were outdated in all BU/SUs. Pain assessment documentation was suboptimal. Evidence-based nursing care guidelines were generally demanded by all participants to help reduce mortality and morbidity of this rare and often devastating disease.
