Return to work in adults after burn injury in Australia: Western Australian outcomes, 2006–2024
While this study, which focussed on patient-reported outcome measures, confirmed that common, non-modifiable factors were barriers to return to work, timely multidisciplinary team input was shown to facilitate the high rate of return and early occupational therapy was associated with less reported work impairment, within one year after burn.
