Criminal attacks by burns on women in Jordan are highlighted in this retrospective study carried out of all proved cases of criminal burns in female patients treated at the burn unit of the Royal Rehabilitation Center in Jordan between January 2005 and June 2012. Thirteen patients were included in our study, out of a total of 550 patients admitted, all in the age range of 16-45 yr. Of these 13 women, six were burned by acid throwing, five by hot water, and two by direct flames from fuel thrown over them. Burn percentage ranged from 15 to 75% of the total body surface area, with involvement in most cases of the face and upper trunk. The mean hospital stay was 33 days and the mortality rate was 3/13, i.e. 23%. Violence against women exists in Jordanian society, yet burning assaults are rare. Of these, burning by throwing acid is the most common and most disfiguring act, with a higher mortality rate in domestic environments.
这项回顾性研究聚焦于约旦针对女性的烧伤犯罪袭击事件,该研究涵盖了2005年1月至2012年6月期间在约旦皇家康复中心烧伤科接受治疗的所有已证实的女性烧伤犯罪病例。我们的研究纳入了13名患者,在总共550名入院患者中,所有患者年龄均在16至45岁之间。在这13名女性中,6人被泼酸烧伤,5人被热水烫伤,2人被泼洒在她们身上的燃料直接火焰烧伤。烧伤面积占全身表面积的15%至75%,大多数病例累及面部和上半身。平均住院时间为33天,死亡率为3/13,即23%。约旦社会存在针对女性的暴力行为,但烧伤袭击较为罕见。其中,泼酸烧伤是最常见且最毁容的行为,在家庭环境中的死亡率更高。
