Operated by Parkland and the University of Texas Health Science Center’s Southwestern Medical School, the center became First in several areas of research and devel opment and patient care over the years. Dr. Charles Baxter, the center’s First director and now its research di rector, says his staff had no idea the center would grow and become a leader in regional burn-care centers. “We’ve come a long way and we have a long way to go,” Baxter said. “All we did is take care of what ever came in. You don’t try to get larger.” Twenty-five years ago doctors were chartering unknown methods, learning as they went and hoping new techniques would extend the life of someone caught in a fire or burned in an explosion. Dr. William Curreri, a former University faculty member and now chairman of the University of South ern Alabama department of Surgery said, “I don’t think it was unusual 25 years ago for a patient to be brought into a hospital and the curtains drawn around him and he was left to die. “It was so overwhelming to the hospitals.” At the time, people who suffered burns on 45 percent of their body had only a 50-percent chance of sur viving. Col. Basil Pruitt Jr., commander and director of the U.S. Army Insti tute of Surgical Research at Brooke Army Medical Center in Fort Sam Houston said now, thanks to re search at Parkland and other hospi tals, the chance for survival is higher. Pruitt, who addressed a recent 25th anniversary seminar at Park land, said his staff works closely with the Dallas center. Baxter said university doctors in the past 25 years developed a fluid resuscitation formula now used in most hospitals; topical antibacterial agents for the control of infections; a care “We’ve come a long way and we have a long way to go. All we did is take of whatever came in. — Charles Baxter, search director of the burn center at Parkland Memorial Hospital re- Pam Walter, intensive c torn I nurse said regardless of a, ictoi tient’s stay in the Parkland: iboju averages one day forever ’entii of the body that’s burned K A team of doctors, numl“It' workers and occupation as:® cal therapists works logeiiJams effort to aid the healing pniarci the patients’ burns.

Today, the hospital has two units with 34 beds that can meet the needs of more than 450 patients a year. Many are in critical or serious con dition with burns covering more than 20 to 25 percent of their bodies. Fourteen of the beds are strictly for intensive care patients; the rest are in the acute burn unit. “No one expected himl far as he did,” she said pulled through.
