- Are third degree burns also subclassified into 3a and 3b burns?
I have come across a discussion of a therapy that is listed in a (translated) Russian text as being good for "3a and 3b degree burns", without the text explaining what the difference is between these two subclassifications of third degree burns, and I do not find that distinction in (English) online sites discussing the degrees (one to four) of burns. Is there such a subclassification in the West, or is this a Russian thing?
