7 Friday, November 7, 2014 (Continued) 2:30 pm 3:30 pm Global Burn Registry Speaker: Michael D. Peck, MD, ScD, FACS Epidemiological data are the foundation for meaningful prevention programs, but data on morbidity and mortality caused by burns in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) is sadly lacking. Recognizing this, two important international agencies have begin simultaneous development of two global burn registries. The first, developed by a coalition of the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves (GACC), has been trialed in over 35 LMIC; this registry will provide information necessary for the GACC to initiate pilot prevention programs related to cookstove and other types of burn injuries. The other registry has been developed by the International Society of Burn Injuries (ISBI), and has begun gathering data from many countries across the globe. The focus of the ISBI registry is more clinical, with extensive fields for information about acute care, surgery, and complications. In addition, there are a few nascent projects focused on community surveillance, which uses surveys to collect information from households about the incidence and impact of burns. Summarize the benefit of having a global burn registry Examine the challenges of collecting data Measure the effectiveness of surveys Analyze data to determine trends within the burn community 3:30 pm 4:45 pm Abstract Session 4:00 pm 5:30 pm Tour & Reception of Lions Burn Center of University Medical Center, Southern Nevada Saturday, November 8, :30 am 8:00 am Registration and Continental Breakfast 8:00 am 9:30 am Preparing for the Unthinkable Speakers: Kevin McCulley, Annette F.
