Jackson’s Burn Wound Model
| Zone Name | Location | Tissue Damage | Change with Treatment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coagulation | Inner | Dead | Not changed |
| Stasis | Middle | Dynamic penumbra | Target of burn care: good first aid and wound management can significantly reduce the need for skin grafting (otherwise it can turn into zone of coagulation, if not properly treated) |
| Hyperemia | Outer | Reactive inflammation | Will return to normal within hours of the injury regardless of care |
Explains the dynamic nature of burn injuries and how assessment of burn size and depth at the time of injury can be different compared to 48 hours later
