description | Context: Concern engendered by a previous study that showed inadequate first aid for burn injuries was prevalent in the community led to a novel multi-media public health campaign ensued to address the issue.
Objective: To determine whether this public health campaign influenced behaviour by altering first aid treatment for burn injuries (BFAT).
Design,
setting and population: Prospective intervention study. Consecutive patients with acute burn injuries over two 4-month intervals, presenting to a regional burn service, Auckland, New Zealand. This research was ethically approved by the Local Research Ethics Committee.
Main outcome measures: Demographics, burn size, adequacy of burn first aid, outpatient/inpatient wound care and operative intervention requirement.
Results: Adequacy of BFAT improved following the campaign (59% versus 40%,
P=0.004). Fewer inpatient admissions (64.4% versus 35.8%,

Main outcome measures: Demographics, burn size, adequacy of burn first aid, outpatient/inpatient wound care and operative intervention requirement.
Results: Adequacy of BFAT improved following the campaign (59% versus 40%,

P<0.001) and surgical procedures (25.6% versus 11.4%,
P<0.001) were undertaken following the campaign with a corresponding increase in outpatient care. Greatest decreases were observed in Maori and Pacific Islanders, and in children <10 years old.
Conclusions: Adequacy of BFAT together with a reduction in the numbers of patients requiring inpatient surgical care was improved by a multi-media public awareness campaign.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0305-4179</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1879-1409</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.burns.2003.09.009</identifier><identifier>PMID: 14693091</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Netherlands: Elsevier Ltd</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Adult ; Aged ; Burn size ; Burns - ethnology ; Burns - psychology ; Burns - therapy ; Burns first aid treatment ; Child ; Child, Preschool ; Communications Media ; Female ; First Aid - standards ; Health Behavior ; Health Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice ; Health Promotion - methods ; Hospitalisation ; Hospitalization - statistics & numerical data ; Humans ; Infant ; Male ; Middle Aged ; New Zealand - epidemiology ; Program Evaluation ; Prospective Studies</subject><ispartof>Burns, 2004-02, Vol.30 (1), p.82-85</ispartof><rights>2003 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c355t-b67120f3520f8997de40937db97a11e4053107cacc295bc1977a040b1e07965c3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c355t-b67120f3520f8997de40937db97a11e4053107cacc295bc1977a040b1e07965c3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.burns.2003.09.009$$EHTML$$P50$$Gelsevier$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,777,781,3537,27905,27906,45976</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14693091$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Skinner, Adrian M</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Brown, Tim La H</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Peat, Bruce G</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Muller, Michael J</creatorcontrib><title>Reduced Hospitalisation of burns patients following a multi-media campaign that increased adequacy of first aid treatment</title><title>Burns</title><addtitle>Burns</addtitle><description>Context: Concern engendered by a previous study that showed inadequate first aid for burn injuries was prevalent in the community led to a novel multi-media public health campaign ensued to address the issue.
