Abstract

BackgroundBurn injuries place a heavy burden on the global healthcare system. However

there is still a lack of nationwide studies on the epidemiological characteristics of burn patients in mainland China. The present study aims to accurately analyze the clinical characteristics of burn patients by collecting data in mainland China from 2009 to 2018

which will provide effective strategies for healthcare systems and the government in mainland China.MethodsPatients admitted for burn injuries to 196 hospitals in 31 provinces

autonomous regions and municipalities in mainland China from 2009 to 2018 were included. The data collected included sex

age

month distribution

etiology

region

clinical outcome

injury anatomical location

total burn surface area and mortality. SPSS 19.0 software was used to analyze the data.ResultsFrom 2009 to 2018

the burn patients were 333

995 (0.76%)

which included 222

480 (66.61%) males and 111

515 (33.39%) females. From 2009 to 2018

the number of individuals admitted to hospitals for burns showed a downward trend year by year. The burn patients accounted for the highest proportion of inpatients in 0–10 years (38.10%)

followed by 40–50 years (13.14%). The highest cure ratio of burn inpatients was in the 20–30 age group (31 394

71.53%). Among 31 provinces

autonomous regions and municipalities

the province with the highest proportion of total inpatients caused by burns was Inner Mongolia (4.61%)

followed by Zhejiang (3.17%)

Hainan (2.88%) and Xinjiang (2.64%). Summer (29.16%) was the season with the highest incidence of burn patients admitted to hospitals

followed by spring (25.6%). Scalding (60.19%) was the most frequent kind of burn treated

followed by fire (20.45%). The patients had multiple burn sites (68.89%) most often

followed by burns on the lower limbs (10.91%). From 0% to 10% total body surface area (TBSA) accounted for the highest ratio (37.19%)

followed by 90–100% TBSA (21.74%).ConclusionsThe present study is the first to describe the associated situation and trends of burn patients in mainland China from 2009 to 2018. Our findings will serve as the latest clinical evidence for healthcare planning and prevention efforts in China and other countries.
