Abstract

Objective

Burn injuries are prevalent worldwide, especially in developing countries; and there are significant children burn injuries in Palestine. This study was performed to analyse the pattern, cause, of burn injuries in Palestine.

Methods

Prospective study, we undertook a prospective study of all patients under 6 years who admitted to burn unit 1 January 2022, and 31 December 2022. In-person interviews with the children's parents determined the burns' genesis and environmental causes. Demographic and clinical data were obtained.

Result

The population being studied had a mean age of 3.1 years. The majority of the 91 patients who were burned did so because of scalds. Flame 10 sufferers represented 60% of the patients; 60% were residents of urban areas. Five people were living in residence. Most of the children (81 of the total) were with another person at the time of the burn injury, and the kitchen was the location of the burn in 41 cases.

Conclusion

The patients' crowded environment was a challenge. Even when an adult was close, the caretaker did not watch the child well. Burns are likely in the kitchen, where people cook and eat harmful foods. First, ensure the kitchen is safe, and then apply other safety procedures around the house to decrease the danger of burns to children.

学龄前儿童烧伤原因分析

烧伤在世界范围内普遍存在，特别是在发展中国家；在巴勒斯坦有很多儿童烧伤。本研究旨在分析巴勒斯坦地区烧伤的模式、原因。方法前瞻性研究，我们对2022年1月1日和2022年12月31日入住烧伤病房的所有6岁以下患者进行了前瞻性研究。与儿童父母的面对面访谈确定了烧伤的成因和环境原因。获得了人口学和临床数据。结果调查人群平均年龄为3.1岁。在91名被烧伤的病人中，大多数是因为烫伤。火焰10型患者占60%；60%是城市居民。当时有五个人住在公寓里。大多数儿童（81例）在烧伤时与另一个人在一起，其中41例烧伤发生在厨房。结论患者的拥挤环境是一个挑战。即使有成年人在附近，看护人也没有很好地照看孩子。烧伤很可能发生在人们烹饪和食用有害食物的厨房。首先，确保厨房是安全的，然后在房子周围应用其他安全程序来减少儿童烧伤的危险。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice aims to promote the evaluation and development of clinical practice across medicine, nursing and the allied health professions. All aspects of health services research and public health policy analysis and debate are of interest to the Journal whether studied from a population-based or individual patient-centred perspective. Of particular interest to the Journal are submissions on all aspects of clinical effectiveness and efficiency including evidence-based medicine, clinical practice guidelines, clinical decision making, clinical services organisation, implementation and delivery, health economic evaluation, health process and outcome measurement and new or improved methods (conceptual and statistical) for systematic inquiry into clinical practice. Papers may take a classical quantitative or qualitative approach to investigation (or may utilise both techniques) or may take the form of learned essays, structured/systematic reviews and critiques.
