Ken Dunn initially trained in London and was a trainee surgeon in a number of burns and plastic surgery units in England, including East Grinstead, the Accident Hospital in Birmingham and the Odstock Unit in Salisbury.

He was a Consultant in Manchester, England from 1996 until clinical retirement in 2018 prior to which he was the Director of the Manchester Burn Services and Clinical Lead for the Manchester Burns and Plastic Surgery Service and lead for the Complex Wound Service.

As with all forms of trauma, the initial assessment and treatment of burn injury impacts profoundly on the subsequent management and patient outcomes.

In burn care, various differences exist with other forms of trauma which are important to understand in order to optimise the early management and avoid some of the pitfalls.

Robert Jones is a Consultant Interventional Radiologist at QE Hospital Birmingham.

This webinar will focus on the role of Interventional Radiology (IR) in trauma, raise awareness and provide information on when IR is appropriate. A review of the relevant evidence base will be included, for pelvic, peripheral and solid organ injury with illustrative ‘real-life’ case examples. Controversies, logistical challenges and the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach will also be addressed with the overall aim of improving knowledge, patient pathways and outcomes with the involvement of IR in trauma where appropriate.
