Description
Yong Zhang and co-authors look back at severe burn cases at a center in Suzhou, China, in a 2024 study. Severe burns bring lasting harm and social costs, so knowing who is hit and what drives death can guide care and safety work.
Records from 2017 to 2022 cover three hundred seventy five adults. Most were men in mid life, and flame was the top cause, with blasts next. Most patients had large burns, and a third faced complications. Death struck about one in twenty. Old age, flame cause, deep and wide burns, lung harm, and complications each raised the risk of death.
