OBJECTIVE
To describe the causes of burns associated with fondues.
DESIGN
Descriptive case series.
PATIENTS
All 17 patients admitted to a burn centre between Apr. 1, 1985, and Mar. 31, 1990, whose burns were associated with fondue. Eleven agreed to complete a telephone interview.
RESULTS
The age of the 17 patients varied from 2 to 56 (mean 27) years. Two causes were identified: spilling of the contents of the fondue pot and explosion of the fondue fuel when added to the burner during a meal. The telephone interview revealed that eight people other than the respondents were burned during the same accidents.
CONCLUSION
Although we identified only badly burned patients the problem may be more extensive. The knowledge of specific causes of burns from handling fondue equipment indicates that preventive action should be undertaken. More epidemiologic information is needed to obtain a precise estimate of the magnitude of this public health problem.
目的
描述与奶酪火锅相关的烧伤原因。
设计
描述性病例系列。
患者
1985年4月1日至1990年3月31日期间入住烧伤中心的所有17例与奶酪火锅相关的烧伤患者。11例同意接受电话访谈。
结果
17例患者年龄从2岁至56岁（平均27岁）不等。确定了两个原因：奶酪火锅锅内容物溢出以及用餐期间向燃烧器添加奶酪火锅燃料时燃料爆炸。电话访谈显示，在同一事故中，除受访者外还有8人被烧伤。
结论
尽管我们仅确定了重度烧伤患者，但该问题可能更为广泛。了解处理奶酪火锅设备导致烧伤的具体原因表明应采取预防措施。需要更多的流行病学信息来准确估计这一公共卫生问题的严重程度。
