- Reconstructive SurgeryProper evaluation and management, and early referral to a specialist can greatly help minimize suffering and optimize results for burn patients. Outcomes for burn patients have dramatically improved over the past several years, with the goals of treatment to control pain, remove dead tissue, prevent infection, reduce scarring risk, and regain function. The goal of reconstructive surgery is to improve both function and cosmetic appearance by altering scar tissue with non-operative and operative treatments. As with other medical evaluations, burn examinations can also determine whether previous treatment has been proper and effective. An Independent Medical Examiner can review all the medical records provided by the treating physician, conduct exams and tests to substantiate or counter the original findings, review results of current or previous treatments, recommend future treatment needs, and provide their opinion on the need for any future medical benefits.
