CAMISA VICENTE, Elba et al. Deep burns in lower extremities. The importance of the human factor: clinical case. Gerokomos [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.4, pp.263-268.  Epub 17-Jan-2022. ISSN 1134-928X.

The objective is to expose the therapeutic approach and importance of the human factor in the appearance of adverse events in injuries caused by burns. To do this, we present the case of a 48-year-old woman who suffered deep skin burns from exposure to boiling oil in lower extreme embassies with a burned total body surface area of 10%. In Primary Care, a nursing action plan with a holistic vision was established to avoid the appearance of adverse events. The results indicated, despite the instructions given on the importance of rest, that the human factor of the patient prevented, from 15 days, keeping the necessary rest. This fact caused the deepening of some of the injuries. It can be concluded that the appearance of adverse events due to the human factor delayed wound healing and deepened the injuries to both extremities.
