A1 - Humphrey, LJ SP - 81 EP - 85 VL - 4 IS - 2 N2 - Data from 291 burn patients treated at the burn centre of the University of Kansas Medical Center were analysed by discriminant function analysis. Age, sex, extent of burn and body weight were examined in an attempt to predict which patients could be expected to survive. Several sets of predictor variables, corresponding to varying states of knowledge about the patient, are presented. Comparisons with results from previous investigations are also included.
