“…Large improvements over time in the different dimensions of the EQ-5D were also seen, except for the dimensions anxiety/depression and pain/discomfort. Even up to 7 year post burn, these dimensions remained more impaired in burn patients compared to the general population, both in the group of patients with mild and intermediate burns as in the group of patients with major burns [37]. Also, problems with usual activities Fig 3. A-E.…”

Background A prominent outcome measure within burn care is health related quality of life (HRQL). Until now, no model for long-term recovery of HRQL exists for adult burn patients which requires large samples with repeated measurements. Re-use and the combination of existing data is a way to achieve larger data samples that enable the estimation of long-term recovery models. The aim of this secondary data analysis was to assess the recovery of HRQL after a burn injury over time. Methods and findings Data from ten European studies on generic HRQL assessed in adult burn patients (either with the EQ-5D or SF-36) from five different countries were merged into one dataset. SF-36 outcomes were transformed into EQ-5D outcomes. A 24-month recovery of HRQL (EQ-5D utility) was modeled using a linear mixed-effects model and adjusted for important patient and burn characteristics. Subgroups of patients with mild and intermediate burns (�20% total body surface area (TBSA) burned) and with major burns (>20% TBSA burned) were compared. The combined database included 1687 patients with a mean age of 43 (SD 15) years and a median %TBSA burned of 9% (IQR 4-18). There was large improvement in HRQL up to six months after burns, and HRQL remained relatively stable afterwards (studied up to 24 months post burn). However, the estimated EQ-5D utility scores remained

“…The whole team, including medical professionals, patients and their families, organizations [ 78 ] and government agencies [ 79 ], should be engaged in helping burn patients better adapt to their families and the society. Sports, entertainment activities, vocational training programs, burn survival groups and peer support groups [ 80 ], patient or family supporting groups [ 81 ], camps for burned children [ 82 – 85 ] and other similar programs might be helpful to burn patients as well as their families.…”

Quality of life and functional recovery after burn injury is the final goal of burn care, especially as most of burn patients survive the injury due to advanced medical science. However, dysfunction, disfigurement, contractures, psychological problems and other discomforts due to burns and the consequent scars are common, and physical therapy and occupational therapy provide alternative treatments for these problems of burn patients. This guideline, organized by the Chinese Burn Association and Chinese Association of Burn Surgeons aims to emphasize the importance of team work in burn care and provide a brief introduction of the outlines of physical and occupational therapies during burn treatment, which is suitable for the current medical circumstances of China. It can be used as the start of the tools for burn rehabilitation.

“…The traumatic nature of a burn injury combined with changes in appearance, function and experience of pain often leads to significant psychological distress for burn survivors [4]. Evidence for the specific treatment of adjustment disorder or MDD in this population is limited, yet a number of studies demonstrated positive outcomes in reducing burn survivors' depressive symptoms in both the inpatient and outpatient settings [35,36]. However, due to the use of symptom severity questionnaires rather than specific psychiatric diagnoses in these studies, it is not possible to conclude if psychotherapy is more appropriate for a specific depressive disorder.…”

Many burn survivors have pre-existing psychiatric conditions or develop psychological or psychiatric symptoms over the course of their hospital stay. Patients often present with low mood and neurovegetative symptoms which can be conceptualized as demoralization, adjustment disorder, or major depressive disorder. We review the literature on these syndromes in burn survivors and present three cases that highlight the continuum of these syndromes for patients who present with symptoms of depression following a burn injury. We discuss the clinical challenges of differentiating these syndromes as well as psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacologic considerations and recommendations.
