To describe the trends in burn-related mortality rates in Mexico from 1979-2009.
Burn-related mortality standardized rates and trends were estimated from official mortality data in Mexico. Variables included were:age, sex, federal state and year of death.
From 1979-2009, 33,333 burn-related deaths were registered. During this period, the burn-mortality rate decreased, stating from a rate of 2.32/100,000 in 1979 and dropping to 0.72/100,000 in 2007, but in 2008 and 2009 the mortality rates occurred in the states of Baja California, Chihuahua, Baja California Sur,Sonora and Durango, all of these states in the northwest of Mexico. Men were twice as likely as women to die from burns.
Mortality caused by burns in Mexico presents a descendent tendency in most of the states of the Country, with the exception of the northwest region, which may be related to the lack of specialized units in the treatment of burn distance between the population centers and the specialized attention units.
描述1979年至2009年墨西哥烧伤相关死亡率的趋势。
根据墨西哥官方死亡率数据估算烧伤相关死亡率标准化率及趋势。纳入的变量包括：年龄、性别、联邦州及死亡年份。
1979年至2009年，共登记了33333例烧伤相关死亡病例。在此期间，烧伤死亡率下降，从1979年的2.32/10万降至2007年的0.72/10万，但在2008年和2009年，下加利福尼亚州、奇瓦瓦州、南下加利福尼亚州、索诺拉州和杜兰戈州出现了死亡率上升的情况，所有这些州都位于墨西哥西北部。男性因烧伤死亡的可能性是女性的两倍。
墨西哥大部分州的烧伤死亡率呈下降趋势，但西北部地区除外，这可能与缺乏烧伤治疗专业单位、人口中心与专业治疗单位之间距离较远有关。
