A review of 247 pediatric emergency charts and 80 pediatric impatient charts was performed over a three-year period at a tertiary care children's hospital in Honolulu. The purpose of this review was to examine the causes of childhood burns in Hawaii in order to develop guidelines for anticipatory guidance regarding burn prevention. Most burns occurred in the 0.8- to 3.0-year age group. Over one half of these burns were caused by tap water. Medicaid patients were more likely to be admitted to the hospital than nonMedicaid patients. Severe burns were mainly the result of scalds, fire, or contact with heating appliances. Burn severity and the causes of burns did not vary significantly with sex or ethnic or economic status. A burn prevention program which adequately addresses the unique cultural and climatic differences of this community, based on the data obtained, is described.
在檀香山一家三级护理儿童医院，我们在三年时间里对247份儿科急诊病历和80份儿科住院病历进行了回顾。此次回顾的目的是研究夏威夷儿童烧伤的原因，以便制定预防烧伤的预期指导方针。大多数烧伤发生在0.8至3.0岁年龄组。其中超过一半的烧伤是由自来水导致的。医疗补助患者比非医疗补助患者更有可能住院。严重烧伤主要是烫伤、火灾或接触加热设备造成的。烧伤严重程度和烧伤原因在性别、种族或经济状况方面没有显著差异。基于所获得的数据，描述了一个充分考虑该社区独特文化和气候差异的烧伤预防计划。
