Abstract

Aims: To study the relationship between ABO blood group characteristics and treatment outcomes for adult burn patients.
Subject and methods: A retrospective study on 664 adult burn patients with TBSA of 20% or more admitted to the National Burn Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023.
Results: The average age of study patients was 42.2 years old. The main cause of burns was dry heat, accounting for 67.2%. The average total burn surface area (TBSA) was 42.5% and the average deep burn area was 15.9%. The average hospital stay was 34.07 days. There was a statistically significant difference in the mortality rate and the rate of adult burn patients with combined diseases compared to blood groups (p < 0.05). Blood group B was a factor that increased the risk of death in burn patients (OR = 1,598; p = 0.04; 95%CI 1,022 - 2,500).
Conclusion: Adult burn patients with blood type B had a higher risk of death from severe burns compared to other blood types.
