Provider Survey on Burn Care in India
The findings reveal significant gaps in staff training, intensive care monitoring, and infection prevention. Many patients initially seek help from traditional healers, often delaying appropriate treatment and worsening outcomes. Enhancing education, implementing standard monitoring practices, and ensuring adherence to clinical protocols are critical steps toward improving burn care outcomes in India.
