Epidemiology and Demographics

The incidence of burn injury is approximately 86% of sustained burns/ scald (thermal) injuries, 4%sustained electrical burn injuries, and 3%remaining Are chemical. [1][2][3]

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 ). it reported 122 case in this age.122 were aged between 16-35 yrs. 189 people who sustained burns/ scald injuries 33 were children aged 15 yrs. or less [4].

There is no racial predilection to burn injury.

Female [5]are more commonly affected by critical burn injury than male (>25% body surface area) was statistically significant in adults[6][7][8]

Burn injuries more commonly affect people of low and middle income and people in low-income countries[3]

Pulmonary complications following burns and inhalation injury are responsible for up to 77 percent of the deaths, among which the majority are due to carbon monoxide poisoning[9][10]. Inhalation injury is a common then burn injury that tends to affect patient. The incidence of this injury increases with age and size of the burn injury[11][12] .In addition, inhalation injury has been shown to be an independent predictor of mortality in burn[13].
