BURN-OP: A screening tool for identifying a symptomatically distinct cluster of burn patients with the greatest healthcare needs at discharge
Objective
To identify burn patients needing intensive rehabilitation based on discharge symptoms.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective analysis of 1049 adult burn patients recruited to the Burn Injury Model System National Database. Using unsupervised hierarchical clustering, we identified three distinct patient clusters based on discharge symptoms and compared their clinical and demographic profiles, long-term rehabilitative needs, and self-reported quality of life. We also developed a weighted BUrn Rehabilitative Needs - OutPatient (BURN-OP) to prospectively identify patients with highest rehabilitative needs.
Results
Three burn patient clusters were identified: Cluster 1 with low, Cluster 2 with moderate, and Cluster 3 with high symptom burdens. Cluster 3, comprising 6 % of discharged patients, had notably longer hospital stays, older age at burn, larger total body surface area (TBSA), increased days on ventilator, a higher number of surgical procedures, concomitant inhalation injury, and higher weight loss from admission to discharge. Cluster 3 patients preferentially utilized a wide spectrum of rehabilitative services (including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, social work, psychologic services, vocational services) extending up to 2 years post-discharge. Their self-reported health outcomes were worse, with greater limitations in work/activity and elevated pain interference persisting 5-years post-discharge. BURN-OP demonstrated high specificity (98.99 %) and accuracy (96.19 %, ROC AUC: 0.93) in identifying Cluster 3 patients at discharge.
Conclusions
We identify distinct burn patient clusters based on discharge symptoms, with Cluster 3 exhibiting the highest post-discharge healthcare needs. BURN-OP (https://burn-op.streamlit.app/) identifies high-risk patients, offering a tool for prioritizing interventions and designing trials that mitigate risk of Cluster 3 membership.
期刊介绍:
Burns aims to foster the exchange of information among all engaged in preventing and treating the effects of burns. The journal focuses on clinical, scientific and social aspects of these injuries and covers the prevention of the injury, the epidemiology of such injuries and all aspects of treatment including development of new techniques and technologies and verification of existing ones. Regular features include clinical and scientific papers, state of the art reviews and descriptions of burn-care in practice.
Topics covered by Burns include: the effects of smoke on man and animals, their tissues and cells; the responses to and treatment of patients and animals with chemical injuries to the skin; the biological and clinical effects of cold injuries; surgical techniques which are, or may be relevant to the treatment of burned patients during the acute or reconstructive phase following injury; well controlled laboratory studies of the effectiveness of anti-microbial agents on infection and new materials on scarring and healing; inflammatory responses to injury, effectiveness of related agents and other compounds used to modify the physiological and cellular responses to the injury; experimental studies of burns and the outcome of burn wound healing; regenerative medicine concerning the skin.
