title: The treatment of burns in children.
abstract: As a cause of accidental death in childhood, burns are exceeded only by motor car injuries and drownings. The mortality has been reduced substantially in recent years, but very many children must still carry scars both physical and emotional for the rest of their lives from burning accidents, many of which were preventable.
