SPECTRUM OF FACIAL BURN INJURIES AND THEIR DIFFERENT MODES OF TREATMENT
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
INTRODUCTION A major public health problem in India is burns injuries. It is prevalent especially in low and middle income countries, where over 95% of all burn deaths occur. Fire related burns alone account for over 0.3 million deaths per year. But Death is not the only consequence. There are around 80% of the fire victims who become disfigured and permanently disabled. For some this means living with the stigma and rejection that all too often comes with disability and disfigurement
