Outcomes of complex burn injury patients managed at two primary and one tertiary level burns facilities in the Western Cape province of South Africa - a retrospective review
CONCLUSION: The PLHs showed good outcomes in managing severe burn injuries, although no significant contributors to a positive outcome were identified. Patient- and facility-related factors contributed to positive outcomes at the TBU. Upgrading both the Western Cape's primary level capabilities and the TBU's accessibility and efficiency are necessary to improve burns services.PMID:38450695
