Burn Injury

Introduction:
In developing Countries, burns are important causes of injury mortality and morbidity, often ranking as a significant source of mortality after traffic injuries, drowing and falls. Huse fires and clothing fires are the most severe and Iethal events. but are less frequent than scalds and other mild to moderate burns. Scald injuries are particularly severe as they often lead to permanent disability from the extensive scarring over large body areas. or blindness from corneal scarring.
Most burn injuries in developing countries, particularly among children and women. occur in homes. Most homes are heated by burning wood or coal in open fires and cooking is done on the same open fire. Since most homps are singleroom dwellings in rural areas. there is always close proximitly of children and fire or scalding liquids. This is the acse in Bangladesh as well where almost all rural homes (which make up 80 percent of all homes) have open fires or kerosene stoves for cooking and heating.
