Factors responsible for mortality among burns patients in Islamic Republic of Iran.
Background: Burns is one of the most important causes of death, and the best way to reduce mortality due to burns is prevention.
Aims: To investigate the factors responsible for mortality due to burns in south-western Islamic Republic of Iran.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 400 burns patients admitted to different wards of Ayatollah Taleghani Trauma and Burns Hospital, Ahvaz, Islamic Republic of Iran, from October 2020 to September 2021. Logistic regression was used to determine the factors responsible for mortality.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 28.47 (19.09) years, and 252 (63.0%) patients were male. There were 257 survivors and 143 deaths (35.75% mortality rate). The multiple logistic regression model showed that age, sex, percentage of total body surface area, burn depth, length of hospital stay, and length of intensive care unit stay were significantly associated with deaths due to burns.
Conclusion: The mortality rate due to burns was high at the Ayatollah Taleghani Trauma and Burns Hospital, Islamic Republic of Iran. Improving the quality of care provided to burns patients at health facilities can help reduce the current high mortality rate.
