Study Design: Retrospective study Place and Duration: The Study was performed in the Plastic surgery and burn unit of Allied Hospital, Faislabad for the period of three year from March 2013 to March 2016. Methodology: Retrospective review of records was conducted in all 3972. Variables such as age, sex, type of burn, burning mode and patient outcome were recorded and evaluated. Findings: The majority of patients (n = 3139, 79.0%) had a fever in 3972 patient enrollment and this was followed by electrical burns (n = 304, 7.7%), scalds (n = 207, 5.2%) and chemical burns ). The majority of patients (n = 2958; 74.5%) were aged between 16 and 40 years. Most of the cases have been reported accidentally, but in the past five years suicide and homicide have increased. After a successful recovery, 64.2% were discharged at home. Overall mortality rate was 31.2% in the last 5 years. However, due to better treatment procedures and improved conditions in the hospital, the mortality rate declined to 28.1% in 2010 from 35.3% in 2009. Conclusion: Most of the hospitalized burns were adult males. While most burns accidentally come to the foreground, intentional burns only occur in a small percentage. Fire burns were the dominant form of injury. Mortality was 31.2%. Key words: Burned patients mortality, burn etiology, burn type.
