During a 12-month period ending on 11/30/88, data were collected on 143 pediatric patients visiting a pediatric emergency department with burns. Sixty-four percent were males. Common causes of the burns included hot water (17%), hot food (23%), hot appliances (18%), and charcoal and grills (9%). Sixty-six percent of the burns took place at home. The hospitalization rate was 8%. A suggestion for standardizing scalds based on fluidity and function is proposed, since there is ambiguity regarding definition of a scald.
在截至1988年11月30日的12个月期间,收集了143名因烧伤前往儿科急诊科就诊的儿科患者的数据。其中64%为男性。烧伤的常见原因包括热水(17%)、热食(23%)、热电器(18%)以及炭火和烤架(9%)。66%的烧伤发生在家中。住院率为8%。鉴于烫伤的定义存在模糊性,提出了一项基于流动性和功能对烫伤进行标准化的建议。
