Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Lund–Browder total body surface area (TBSA) burned was calculated faster using a software application on a smart device than using the standard paper and pencil method. • The smart device application results were not significantly different from those of the standard method. • The smart device application is as safe and reliable as the current standard. • Built in tutorials and ease of use may reduce medical errors made during TBSA calculation.
