Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies (i.e., either custom or standard kits) needed for initial emergency burn treatment. Items in these kits usually include burn ointments and sterile sheets, towels, gloves, bandages, and water appropriate for burn treatment. The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. Burn emergency procedure kits and trays are intended for use during procedures for the initial treatment of thermal, friction, electrical, and chemical burns. They are used in the field, at home, in emergency rooms, and in other healthcare facilities.
