Serial circulating endotoxin measurements (quantitative chromogenic limulus assay) were performed in sera from 19 burned patients to determine the profile of circulating serial circulating endotoxin after burn and the effect of early wound excision on serial circulating endotoxin level. Results indicate an early endotoxemia with the peak serial circulating endotoxin levels 7 to 12 hours and 4 days after burn. More importantly, the level of circulating serial circulating endotoxin can be diminished by early excision; late wound excision was associated with a transient increase of serial circulating endotoxin level. Early excision, therefore, may play a critical role in limiting endotoxemia after burn injury.
