Overview
- Klinikum Nürnberg confirmed it is treating one patient transferred from the Crans‑Montana fire, who arrived by air in the night of January 3 and received operative care on admission.
- Doctors describe the first step as an intake or burn bath to clean soot, remove blisters and dead skin, followed by intensive care with antiseptic dressings and high fluid needs.
- Subsequent treatment removes non‑recoverable burned tissue and covers wounds with skin grafts or substitute materials, preferably using the patient’s own skin.
- The center cites specialized capabilities including a dedicated burn bath, ICU rooms with adjustable humidity and temperature, and on‑hand stocks of skin‑replacement materials.
- Around 116 injured people remain under medical care overall, with Nuremberg and other Bavarian centers offering beds and Belgium, France and Italy extending support for care capacity.
