Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates similarities and differences among global burn registries to assess the potential for data comparison and sharing, which could enhance burn prevention and care.
- - Thirteen burn registries contributed, revealing variations in inclusion criteria and a wide range of collected variables, with some common themes identified in data collection practices.
- - While there are shared aspects that could facilitate future data pooling, significant discrepancies exist that could lead to biases, highlighting the need for standardized data elements for effective collaboration.
