Abstract [en]

Introduction: The epidemiology, care, and outcomes of perineal and genital burns (PG ) in high -income countries have been previously described, but an analysis of this topic in LMICs has yet to be performed. We use the World Health Organization 's Global Burn Registry to fill this gap. Methods: The GBR was searched from inception to November 2023 to identify all burn patients, excluding cases from high -income countries. Demographics and mechanism of injury were re - trieved. Primary outcomes were length of hospital stay (LOHS ), surgical intervention, discharge with physical impairment, and mortality. A multivariate regression analysis was performed controlling for burnt total body surface area (TBSA ), age, sex, inhalation injury, mechanism of burn and care center characteristics.
