Abstract
High-voltage electric burn is one of burns that can cause severe damages to tissue and organs. Clinically, progressive injury in high-voltage electric burns is a key pathological change that affects the level of amputation and the success rate of treatment. At present, the exact definition and mechanism of progressive injury in high-voltage electric burns have not been elucidated, and the clinical treatment is mainly symptomatic treatment. Relevant research data on the mechanism and treatment of progressive injury in high-voltage electric burns are lacking. This paper analyzes and summarizes the mechanism, diagnosis, treatment, and common outcome of progressive injury in high-voltage electric burns, and provides a reference for the mechanism research, clinical diagnosis and treatment of progressive injury in high-voltage electric burns.
