title: [Analysis of cost measures in treatment of severely burned patients].
abstract: An analysis of costs and profit and an evaluation of the different cost parameters was performed in our burn centre, which treated 50-80 patients per year between 1991 and 1995. The cost-profit relationship (costs 3.7-4.6 million DM/year, profit 3.8-5.0 million DM/year) is balanced. The main cost parameters are staff costs (1.3-1.9 million DM/year), costs for medical treatment (1.5-1.8 million DM/year), and costs for internal services (0.6-0.9 million DM/year).
