Burn is a skin and tissue damage caused by agent like fire, scald, electricity, sunlight, chemical or nuclear radiation. Burn injury is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. Burn can have long term physical, psychological, economic and social implication on them and their families with ongoing treatment, rehabilitation and the need for regular interventions. However, little information was available on outcome of burn injury and associated factors among burn patients attending care in Ethiopia in general and the study setting in particular. |
