“…Scalds remain the most common source of burns in children globally in both HIC and LMICs, accounting for the majority (53-76%) of paediatric burns in countries from Europe [18][19][20][21], the Americas [22][23][24][25], the Middle East [26][27][28][29], Asia [30][31][32], Australasia [17,33,34] and Africa [35,36]. A descriptive analysis using the World Health Organization's Global Burn Registry (GBR) over a period of five years (2017-2021), suggests that scalds account for 62% of paediatric burns in middle-income countries [6].…”

Burns in children remain a prominent mode of injury, resulting in considerable morbidity and mortality globally and are a key cause of disability-adjusted life-years. Paediatric burns present a unique challenge, in part due to the developmental, physical and emotional differences between adults and children. Those living in low- and middle-income settings are particularly vulnerable, facing problems such as overcrowding and floor-level cooking. During the COVID-19 pandemic, stay at home orders and the closure of schools and childcare changed the pattern of paediatric injury across the world, resulting in a general increase in trauma-related presentations. This review will examine recent global trends in paediatric burns, including the impact of COVID-19, specifically focusing on the pattern of burn aetiology over the past decade. It will also look at any changes with regard to epidemiological characteristics; burn site, severity and extent; first aid and location; and management and outcomes.

Objective. To explore the effect of combining immersion therapy with Shengji ointment on wound healing rate and adverse reaction rate (ARR) in patients with second-degree burn. Methods. The data of 80 patients with second-degree burn treated in our hospital from February 2019 to February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed by the means of retrospective study, and the patients were equally divided into the treatment group and the control group according to their admission order, with 40 cases each. Immersion therapy was performed to all patients (7 d); after that, patients in the control group received routine medication (7 d), and those in the treatment group were treated with Shengji ointment until the wounds were healed, so as to compare their wound healing condition, ARRs, levels of inflammatory factors, and infection incidence. Results. Compared with the control group after treatment, the treatment group presented significantly shorter wound healing time (12.14 ± 1.26 vs. 15.98 ± 1.20, P < 0.001), better wound healing rate and quality ( P < 0.05), and lower levels of inflammatory factors ( P < 0.001); no significant between-group difference in ARRs was shown ( P > 0.05); 34 patients in the treatment group (85.0%) and 26 patients in the control group (65.0%) had no infections, so the incidence rate of infections was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion. Combining immersion therapy with Shengji ointment can reduce the levels of inflammatory factors in patients with second-degree burn, lower the incidence rate of infections, provide the conditions for wound healing, and increase the wound healing rate, which shall be promoted and applied in practice.
