This study included children aged 4\u2009weeks or younger who sustained a burns injury requiring admission to hospital or during their hospital admission. Premature infants who sustained burns during a hospital admission in the neonatal intensive care unit and were under 4\u2009weeks corrected age were also included. Short\u2010term outcomes of burn injuries included infection and need for surgery, and the long\u2010term outcomes included scarring and requirement for laser therapy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Over the 10\u2010year period, 30 burn injuries were sustained by 27 neonates. Thirteen (43.3%) of these burns occurred at home or in the community, and 17 (56.7%) occurred in hospital. Scalds (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a04) and sunburn (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a04) were the most common mechanism in the community, while chemical (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a012) burns including extravasation injuries were the most common sustained in hospital. No neonates required theatre for skin grafting or laser therapy for scarring. There were no infected burns in the cohort.
