Neuroendocrine and Sympathoadrenal Response to Thermal Trauma
Abstract
The previous chapters have described many alterations in secreted hormones and metabolic processes that occur for weeks to months after major burn injury. Interpretation of these alterations can be bewildering; however, many of the findings can be simplified and/or unified to a certain extent if they are viewed as part of an overall alteration in central nervous system (CNS) function characterized by modified control settings.
