[SBS Morning Wide] Fire on the sea, A hero saved a family _Dr. Min-ju Kwon appeared
Registration date: 2017/09/07
There were patients who visited Hangangsoo Hospital after a fire accident at the boat. They were enjoying their summer vacation on the boat. Like this, dangerous fire accidents can happen at any place in our daily life. Fortunately, all of the patients saved their life thanks to a quick first aid. In case of burns, treatment results can vary depending on initial first-aid steps. Not only this fire accident, but also scalding burns, friction burns, and sunburns can occur frequently in our daily life caused by the items that we use frequently nearby. In the event of a burn, having a first aid immediately is a way to minimize damage. Dr. Min-ju Kwon, Director of the Department of Burn Plastic Surgery at Hangangsoo Hospital, confirmed “Thanks to the rapid first aid treatment, the wound was not getting worse. If the correct treatment is performed by a burn specialist from the initial stage and the wound is looked after consistently, the patient can manage his daily life the way he did before.” Gas explosions can also happen in various places, such as outdoors or at home. But most of them cause more than second-degree burns, not minor burns, so patients can get the best treatment results when the initial burn treatment is performed by a burn plastic surgery specialist.
