abstract="The aims of this retrospective study covering the years 1984-1998 were: 1. to survey burn injuries in children at the present time and 2. to compare the current results with the conclusions of an analogous study performed in the years 1964-1983. A decline in the occurrence of lethal burn wounds was found, as well as in burn shock as a direct cause of death. Children 1-4 years old continue to be the most frequent victims of fatal accidents. The most common cause of burn injury in this group remains scalding in the household.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
