Towards more efficient burn care: Identifying factors associated with good quality of life post-burn
Highlights • The probability of achieving a high BSHS-B score six months from injury was estimated. • Gender, surgery, upper limb burn and BSHS-B score within six weeks were significant predictors. • ROC analysis found 90% accuracy overall and 14% specificity at 80% probability of good outcome. • RO...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • The probability of achieving a high BSHS-B score six months from injury was estimated. • Gender, surgery, upper limb burn and BSHS-B score within six weeks were significant predictors. • ROC analysis found 90% accuracy overall and 14% specificity at 80% probability of good outcome. • ROC analysis in an independent sample confirmed high accuracy of the predictive model. • Missing data analysis found that younger patients with smaller TBSA were lost to follow-up. |
