Abstract

BACKGROUND: Burn injury is one of the serious public health problems. Many of burn patients end up with experiencing disability (morbidity). Meanwhile, the epidemiology of burn patients in eastern part of Indonesia is rarely reported.

AIM: We aimed to investigate the sociodemographic characteristic of burn patients in Sanglah General Hospital as the center referral hospital for eastern part of Indonesia.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Viable data were collected from burn patients admitted to Burn Center of Sanglah Hospital between January 2014 and December 2018. A cross-sectional study design was used with statistical analysis which was performed using IBM Statistics 23 for Windows.

RESULTS: A total of 725 subjects were involved in this study. Subjects were divided into two groups of emergency (n = 607, 83.72%) and non-emergency (n = 118, 17.28%). There were 525 (72.4%) burn subjects who were ≥17 years old with combustion caused by flame as the most common case (n = 264, 56.9%), whereas 200 (27.6%) subjects were <17 years old, while the group of age 0–5 years old (n = 115, 57.5%) gave largest proportion admission in pediatric group of scalding as the main cause (n = 100, 69.4%).

CONCLUSION: We found that adults and elders had the highest risk of acquiring combustion caused by flame. Scalding was the most burns case found in the pediatric population.
