Burn injuries in developing nations are reported to be the third most common cause of death in children, after road traffic injuries and drowning, respectively, with scald burns as most common etiological factor. In our retrospective study, we tried to identify and analyze the demographic, socio–cultural aspects of burns patients, various etiological factors, patients’ profile affecting the outcome and mortality rate amongst pediatric burn patients. Study was conducted at a tertiary care referral centre at Mumbai, The study sample included all consecutive admissions in pediatric age group under 18 years from 1st January 2013 to 31st December 2015. The sample consisted of total 119 patients with 70 females. Main affected age group was 13–18 years with 39.5% (47). The peak incidence was in winters (November–February). Majority of children suffered scald burns 48% (57) due to hot liquids. Maximum patients suffered superficial to deep burns affecting 11–30% TBSA. Mortality was maximum in age group of 13–18 years 70% (17) with total mortality of 24. Mean hemoglobin was 11 gm% with mean serum albumin value of 2.95 gm%. Mean number of blood transfusions around one per patient and mean number of procedures done were 1.27 per patient. This study provides an overview of the epidemiology of pediatric burn patients admitted to a tertiary care teaching hospital in Mumbai. Most of these burn injuries can be avoided if simple preventive measures are taken. Hence, most important step is to educate the masses about burns prevention and provide better health care at the grass–root level.
