Abstract
The trend of LA50 in these five years declined by 12%, whereas the SMR was below 100%. Improvement in burn management quality in high-risk groups including the elderly, females, and patients with extensive burns may improve LA50 in burn units. However, LA50 alone is not a conclusive index for the performance of a burn department, and it should be interpreted alongside with SMR.
