Abstract

Aim Mortality rates are important outcome parameters after burn. The causes of mortality have been reported differently in the literature. The aim of the study was to identify parameters that are predictive of major morbidity factors and risk of mortality in patients with burn injury. Material and Methods This study was performed among the patients who admitted to the burn center period between December 2001 and June 2010. Within this period, demographic data, treatment, and outcomes of treatment were reviewed and analyzed. Results The burn patients were analysed retrospectively during 9-years period between December 2001 and January 2010. Burns caused by scalding were the most frequent (69.7 %) followed by flames (24.4 %). 4.30 % of the patients died because of multisystem organ failure, septicaemia and cardiac respiratory failure. Conclusions The most common cause of mortality was multiorgan failure according to our study. The mortality rates and causes of burn centers should be investigated retrospectively between different burn centres to determine the most common cause of mortality in burn centers.

Özet

Amaç Yanık hastalarında mortalite önemli bir parametredir. Literatürde mortalite nedenleri farklı olarak rapor edilmiştir. Bu klinik çalışmanın amacı, yanık merkezindeki mortalite nedenlerini ve risklerini tespit etmek ve tartışmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler Bu çalışmada, Aralık 2001 ve Haziran 2010 arasındaki dönemde yanık merkezine başvuran hastalar retrospektif olarak araştırılmıştır. Bu dönem içindeki, yanık hastalarının, demografik özellikleri, tedavileri ve tedavi sonuçları incelenmiş ve analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular Bu çalışmada, Aralık 2001 ve Haziran 2010 arasındaki 9 yılda başvuran yanık hastaları retrospektif olarak incelendi. Haşlanma yanıklarının oranı %69.7, alev yanıklarının oranı %24.4 olarak tespit edildi.Başvuran hastaların %4.30’u multiorgan yetmezliği, septisemi ve kardiorespiratuar yetmezlik nedeniyle kaybedildi. Sonuç Bu çalışmanın sonucunda mortalitenin en sık nedeninin multiorgan yetmezliği olduğu görüldü. Ancak yanık merkezlerindeki mortalitenin en sık nedeninin belirlenmesi için farklı yanık merkezlerinde mortalite oranlarının ve nedenlerinin retrospektif olarak araştırılması gereklidir.
