Survey of childhood burns in Hawaii.

Abstract:

: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.
