Sulfuric Acid Burns (Corrosion and Acute Irritation): Evidence-Based Overview to Management

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Concentrated sulfuric acid causes severe skin injury. To prevent skin destruction, efficient early treatment is of utmost importance. However, regimens suggested in the literature are not always supported by experimental data. Further studies are needed. To improve early management of sulfuric acid burns, future experiments need careful extrapolation between animal skin and human skin. The benefit of water, neutralizer, or alternative agents has to be established by precisely defining acid concentration and time of exposure.
