Abstract
Aim: Burn is a particular form of trauma that can occur with physical and/or chemical factors, affect all systems of organism, and be seen in all ages and genders. In our study, a retrospective analysis was made on the data of children treated in our burn unit over 4 years.
Materials and Methods: The data of 266 patients hospitalized in the Pediatric Surgery Clinic's burn unit between January 2017 and December 2020 were obtained retrospectively from the hospital information management system.
Results: In four years, the number of patients who were evaluated was 266. Ninety-seven of these patients are girls, and 169 of them are boys. The average age of all patients is 2.86 years. (Average: 2.92 for girls, 2.81 for boys).
Conclusion: Patient treatments are customized according to the depth and width of the burn. With an approach specific to each child, individualized treatment plans, which consider the quality of life of the child and parents, will increase the effectiveness of the treatment. Individualized treatment plans, with specific approaches towards each child in consideration of the quality of life of the child and/or their parents, would increase the effectiveness of the treatments.

Abstract
Amaç: Yanık, fiziksel ve kimyasal faktörlerle oluşabilen, tüm organizma sistemlerini etkileyen, her yaş ve cinsiyette görülebilen özel bir travma şeklidir. Çalışmamızda yanık ünitemizde 4 yıl süreyle tedavi gören çocukların verilerinin analizi yapılmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Ocak 2017-Aralık 2020 tarihleri arasında Çocuk Cerrahisi Kliniği yanık ünitesinde yatan 266 hastanın verileri hastane bilgi yönetim sisteminden geriye dönük olarak elde edildi.
Bulgular: Dört yılda değerlendirilen hasta sayısı 266'dır. Bu hastaların 97'si kız, 169'u erkektir. Tüm hastaların yaş ortalaması 2,86'dır. (Ortalama: kızlar için 2,92, erkekler için 2,81).
Sonuç: Hasta tedavileri yanığın derinliğine ve genişliğine göre kişiye özeldir. Her çocuğa özgü bir yaklaşımla, çocuğun ve ebeveynlerin yaşam kalitesini göz önünde bulunduran bireyselleştirilmiş tedavi planları tedavinin etkinliğini artıracağı düşünülmüştür.
