abstract="An information system to support strategic planning for burn care services could help to structure decisions and help indicate to planners those areas of critical relevance to the issue of which burn patients will survive and which will not. This is, therefore, the essence of the need for information system support for strategic planning for appropriate burn care services: to help to identify those critical areas that reflect the real needs of burn patients in terms of survival and nonsurvival that are amenable to changes through planning.  <p>Strategic planning for appropriate burn care services involves highly unstructured decision problems, that must be made by individuals who have a thinkingintuition psychological mode. Planning for the real needs of patients with burn injuries necessitates not only formalized, structured information systems, but information systems that are designed for the psychological modes of these planners of burn care services.</p>  <p></p>",
