The aim of this study is to determine the epidemiological characteristics of burn
patients developing pneumonia, as well as the predisposing factors and the
mortality of these patients. Infectious complications present serious problems in
severely burned patients. Pneumonia, in particular, is a major cause of morbidity
and mortality in burn patients. Patients with inhalation injuries are exposed to
a greater risk due to the possible development of infectious complications in the
lower respiratory tract. During their stay in our Burn Care Unit, 22.9% of our
burn patients developed pneumonia and 10.9 % of these patients died. Risk factors
for the development of pneumonia in burn patients were found to be inhalation
trauma, high ABSI score, the Baux and modified Baux index, and high ASA score
(p<0.01). Age and gender showed no significant correlation to the incidence of
pneumonia. In this study we were able to determine the incidence of pneumonia in
burn patients, their mortality and the strong correlation of the presence of
inhalation injury with the development of pneumonia.
