AI Burn Fluid-Resuscitation Narrative: Drafting Parkland-Formula Rationales
AI can draft Parkland-formula fluid-resuscitation narratives, but the burn-team's hourly urine-output reassessment stays clinical.
11 min · Reviewed 2026
The premise
AI can draft Parkland-formula fluid-resuscitation narratives that record TBSA estimate, calculated 24-hour volume, and the rate split for hours 0-8 and 8-24.
What AI does well here
Compute Parkland volume from weight and TBSA estimate.
Render the hour-0-8 vs hour-8-24 split as a clear narrative.
What AI cannot do
Replace the burn surgeon's hourly titration to urine output.
Decide when to deviate for inhalation injury or comorbidity.
