Abstract

BACKGROUND: Burns are a primary cause of mortality along with the severe physical and psychological morbidities in patientsand their families. Such kinds of injuries bring about considerable financial burdens due to the treatment processes and sequels. Thepresent study aims to investigate the factors that affect the mortality of burns.METHODS: The archives files of the patients admitted because of burn injuries in our burn centre between September 2008and December 2016 were examined in this study. Some of the lab values, such as age, sex, percentage of total burn surface area(TBSA), referral status, burning site, degree of burns, time of admission to hospital, aetiology of burning, blood and blood productscollection, complete blood count, routine biochemistry, coagulation parameters, C-reactive protein (CRP), sedimentation rate, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), were examined while evaluating the patients’ mortalities.RESULTS: A total of 133 patients were included in this study. The patient’s age (p=0.001), the degree of burns (p

Özet

AMAÇ: Yanıklar, hasta ve ailelerine ciddi fiziksel ve psikolojik morbidite meydana getirmeleri yanında önemli bir mortalite nedenidir. Ayrıca bu tür yaralanmalar, tedavi süreçleri ve bıraktığı sekeller nedeniyle önemli mali yükler de getirmektedir. Bu çalışmada amaç, yanık mortalitesini etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Yanık merkezimize Eylül 2008–Aralık 2016 yılları arasında yanık nedeni ile başvuran hastaların kayıtları incelendi. Hastaların mortaliteleri değerlendirilirken yaş, cinsiyet, yanık yüzey alanı yüzdesi, sevk durumu, yanma yeri, yanık derecesi, hastaneye başvuru için geçen süre, yanma etyolojisi, kan ve kan ürünleri alıp almaması, tam kan sayımı, rutin biyokimya, kuagülasyon parametreleri, C-reaktif protein (CRP), sedimentasyon hızı, nötrofil lenfosit oranı (NLR) ve trombosit-lenfosit oranı (PLR) gibi bazı laboratuvar değerleri incelendi. BULGULAR: Toplam 133 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastanın yaşı (p=0.001), yanık derecesi (p
