Abstract

Aims: This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of literature on stasis zones and comb burns, essential for understanding and treating burn injuries. The comb burn model, introduced by Regas, has facilitated animal studies on burn pathophysiology. The Jackson burn model categorizes burns into three zones: coagulation, stasis, and hyperemia, with the stasis zone posing significant treatment challenges. Utilizing animal models, especially rats, is common in burn research. Methods: The comb burn model uses a heated brass comb to study the stasis zone effectively. A PubMed search identified 68 relevant articles, analyzed using Biblioshiny within R Studio. Results: Results indicated that "Burns: Journal of the International Society for Burn Injuries" and "Journal of Burn Care & Research" are key journals. Significant contributors include authors like Singer AJ and McClain SA. The United States, China, and Turkey are leading countries in this research area. The study emphasizes the need for standardized methodologies and improved animal models. Conclusion: The analysis highlights the necessity for ongoing research and international collaboration to advance comb burn understanding and treatment.
