BACKGROUND
International burn societies in many parts of the world have created electronic registries of burn centers in their region. No such directory exists for the continent of Africa.
OBJECTIVE
To create the first electronic directory of burn care providers in Africa.
METHODOLOGY
Emails were sent out to attendees of the Pan African Burn Congress and members of the Pan African Burn Society (PABS) asking if they would like to participate in the directory. Basic information about each burn site were obtained from respondents and compiled into the directory. An online interactive map was created and made available to the public.
RESULTS
40 burn sites were identified across 14 different countries. The majority of burn sites are located in only 5 countries. The most common language spoken is English, followed by French, Amharic, and Afrikaans.
CONCLUSION
This is the first known online directory of burn sites in Africa. Significant challenges exist identifying burn care providers in large portions of the continent.
背景
世界上许多地区的国际烧伤学会都在其所在地区创建了烧伤中心的电子注册处。然而，非洲大陆却没有这样的目录。
目的
创建非洲烧伤护理提供者的第一个电子目录。
方法
向泛非烧伤大会的与会者和泛非烧伤学会（PABS）的成员发送电子邮件，询问他们是否愿意参与该目录。从回复者那里获得每个烧伤中心的基本信息，并将其编入目录。创建了一个在线互动地图，并向公众提供。
结果
在 14 个不同的国家中确定了 40 个烧伤中心。大多数烧伤中心仅分布在 5 个国家。使用最多的语言是英语，其次是法语、阿姆哈拉语和南非荷兰语。
结论
这是非洲首个已知的烧伤中心在线目录。在非洲大陆的很大一部分地区确定烧伤护理提供者仍然存在重大挑战。
