摘要：
Background: Burn injuries are a common cause for hospitalization, and severe burns have an increased risk of death in patients with advanced age, inhalational injury, comorbid conditions. Very little is known about the utilization of palliative care consultation in burn patients.Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors influencing the utilization of inpatient palliative care consultation for patients with severe burn injuries.Methods: This was a retrospective chart review study at a single burn center.Results: Seventeen out of 191 patients (8.9%) received a palliative care consultation with the average time for consultation of 10.3 days. Factors that appear to impact consultation were age, presence of inhalational injury, and multiple comorbid conditions.Conclusion: Inpatient palliative care consultation was underutilized in patients with severe burn injurie. Further research into the outcomes of palliative care consultation could help further support the utility of early involvement in burn patients.
