Overview

Burn injuries is the most frequently observed form of scald (thermal) injuries, and it typically develops in Children, younger children and younger patients. An estimated 1,344,100 fires Americans of all ages have burn injuries. An estimated patients aged 20 and 30 years are the most prevalent age group . Burn injuries has been known to affect females more than males. people of low and middle income and people in low-income countries are more likely to develop burn injuries than older whites. Pulmonary complications following burns and inhalation injury are responsible for up to 77 percent of the deaths.

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • In the 10 years from 2008 to 2017, the incidence in the United States of burns is approximately 1,344,100 fires, resulting in deaths per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate of 3190 civilian, 16,225 civilian injuries.
  • Patients of all age groups may develop burns injury, but flame and scale burns it’s commonly affects individuals Children and younger(children younger than five years old are more often injured with scald burns) than/older(More adults are injured with flame burns ). patients aged between 20 and 30 years are the most prevalent age group, representing 15 percent of cases [3]. Older adults are most likely to sustain a burn in the bathroom, followed by the kitchen[4] . Pediatric burns occur more commonly in the home (84 percent) when children are unsupervised (80 percent)[5][6] .
  • There is no racial predilection to burn injury.
  • Armed conflict increases the incidence of burns, as shown by a survey of burns in Baghdad that demonstrated a rise in incidence from 30 per 100,000 in 2003 to 117 per 100,000 after invasion[21]
