Abstract:
Every year between 400 and 500 North Carolinians are victims of significant burn accidents. Of that number 100 to 175 people suffer third and fourth degree burns. Only a few of these ever receive the complete treatment they need to keep them alive and return them to relatively normal lives. North Carolina has few burn specialists and no burn center. The nearest burn centers are in Richmond and Atlanta. Lefler discusses the burn problems with Dr. A Griswold Bevin. Bevin is chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery and surgery of the hand at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Medical School and is also responsible for the hospital's limited six-bed burn unit.
