Brief Summary:
The treatment of patients with major burns requires resuscitation with massive amounts of fluid, typically a type of salt water that is given by vein. This frequently results in injury to vital organs, especially the lungs and kidneys, and even in death. In this study, the investigators propose to use plasma, a specially prepared blood product made from the liquid part of blood, that has undergone special treatment to reduce the risk of disease transmission. The aims include 1) reduce the amount of fluid given during the first 24 hours after a burn 2) reduce the incidence of lung injury and other complications related to the administration of funds and 3) determine if the blood product has any effect on inflammation. An overall decrease the amount of fluids that burn patients receive should decrease the potential for lung injury, decrease days in the hospital, and improve survival.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Plasma
Pathogen-Reduced Plasma resuscitation
Drug: Pathogen-Reduced Plasma
The treatment group will receive an additional infusion of Pathogen-Reduced Plasma based on the formula, hourly rate, mL/hr = (1 mL*kg*TBSA)/24 hr. This infusion will not be titrated. It will be discontinued at the end of the 24th postburn hour.
Other Name: PRP

Active Comparator: Crystalloid
Standardized crystalloid resuscitation
Drug: Crystalloid Solutions
The control group will receive an additional infusion of LR based on the formula: hourly rate, mL/hr = (1mL*kg*TBSA)/24 hr. this infusion will not be titrated. It will be discontinued at the end of the 24th postburn hour.
Other Name: LR

    Severity and duration of metabolic acidosis (arterial lactate levels)

  6. Incidence of "rescue" (a) [ Time Frame: 48 hours ]
    Initiation of extracorporeal therapy (continuous renal replacement therapy or therapeutic plasma exchange

  7. Incidence of "rescue" (b) [ Time Frame: 48 hours ]
    Infusion of high-dose ascorbic acid (66 mg/kg/hr)

    Intensive Care Unit free days

  12. Multi-Organ Failure Assessment [ Time Frame: 7 days ]
    Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores. Minimum score 1, maximum score 4. The higher the score the worse the outcome.
