OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to describe the demographic profile of patients admitted at the UP-PGH ATR Burn Center from August 2013 - July 2015, and correlate it with outcomes of burn injury.
METHODS:  A  retrospective  study  of  patients  admitted  at  the  UP- PGH  ATR  Burn  Center  from  August  2013  to  July  2015  was conducted,  using  the  data  in  the  Integrated  Surgical  Information System. Descriptive statistics was used to summarize the clinical characteristics of patients. Logistic regression analysis determined the significant predictors of mortality. STATA 12.0 was used for data analysis.
RESULTS:The age groups most commonly involved were: 1 operation). Ninety-one percent (91%) of the admitted burn patients improved; 9% of the patients died. The most common cause of death was multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (40%). Significant factors associated with mortality included: 1) percent total body surface area, 2) inhalational injury and 3) involvement of the head, lower extremities and perineum.
CONCLUSION:  Burns  continue  to  be  a  big  burden  to  developing countries. To confront the burden of burns especially in developing countries  like  the  Philippines,  key  primary  preventive  measures should be implemented and be a priority for public health advocates.
