Medical records were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were stratified into two age groups as pediatric and adults, and then into 10 sub-age groups. Among the 946 patients of the study population, there were 24 mortalities with a mortality rate of 2.5%. Patients within the age range of 70 to 79 years had the highest mortality rate of 33.3%; followed by 60 to 69, 80+, 18 to 29, 10 to 17, and &amp;lt;5 sub-age groups, whose mortality rates were 13.0%, 7.8%, 7.2%, 2.4%, and 0.5%, respectively. In terms of multivariate regression analysis of factors predicting mortality among burn patients in all age groups, fire-flame related burns, age \u226518 years, TBSA burned \u226520% (TBSA \u226520%), the existence of inhalation injury, deep partially\/full-thickness burns were found to be significant prognostic factors of mortality. The strongest association was seen in TBSA \u226560% segment (P &amp;lt; .0001), which had 25.9 times more death risk. As expected, a similar trend was detected when the age groups stratified into age groups, and the strongest association was in the 60+ sub-age group (P &amp;lt; .0001), whose had 5.84 times more likely death; followed by 29 to 59 and 18 to 29 sub-age groups, with the odds ratios of 2.12 (95% confidence interval = 1.25\u20133.61) and 2.08 (95% confidence interval = 1.90\u20134.05), respectively. Oppose to these findings; the 0 to 17 sub-age group was not found to have a statistically significant effect in predicting mortality.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jbcr\/iraa206","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,10]],"date-time":"2020-12-10T17:23:31Z","timestamp":1607621011000},"page":"743-751","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["The Descriptive Epidemiology and Outcomes of Hospitalized Burn Patients in Southern Turkey: Age-Specific Mortality Patterns"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Kayhan","family":"Gurbuz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Burn Center, Department of General Surgery, Adana City Training and Research Hospital, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mete","family":"Demir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Burn Center, Department of General Surgery, Adana City Training and Research Hospital, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021080411310788700_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"52","DOI":"10.1016\/j.burns.2011.03.005","article-title":"Developing the first Bi-National clinical quality registry for burns\u2014lessons learned so far","volume":"38","author":"Watterson","year":"2012","journal-title":"Burns"},{"key":"2021080411310788700_CIT0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1087","DOI":"10.1016\/j.burns.2011.06.005","article-title":"Epidemiology of burns throughout the world.
