Background: We aimed to establish the relationship between hospital stay duration, factors causing burns, total body surface area (TBSA), and patients' age for all individuals admitted to Amir al-Momenin Hospital in Shiraz, Iran.
Methods: This descriptive-analytical investigation was conducted on 1,960 hospitalized patients. The data were evaluated through One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests in addition to a chi-squared test for categorical variables utilizing SPSS version 26 software.
Results: Explosions and fires were the primary causes of burn hospitalizations (n = 635; 32.4% and n = 622; 31.7%). The average hospitalization duration was 12.66 days, with electrical burns leading to the longest stay at 19.91 days. Hospitalized patients had an average total body surface area (TBSA) of around 28%, with burns from fire and explosions resulting in the highest TBSA at 36.59% and 35.74%, respectively. The mean age of admitted patients was 31.51 years, while burns from hot liquids and vapor occurred at an average age of 19.73 years, making this group the youngest.
Conclusion: Burns from explosions and flames are the primary causes of injury, highlighting the need for prevention strategies. Patients with electrical burns experienced longer hospital stays due to specific complications. The severity of burn injuries is closely related to hospitalization duration. Those burned by hot liquids and vapor tend to be younger than those injured by other causes. This risk can be reduced by establishing a designated play area for children away from the kitchen.
