Community integration for major burn survivors shows no significant change from 6 to 24 months post-injury. Factors like sex, living situation, marital status, and burn severity impact integration outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation medicine
  • Burn care outcomes
  • Psychosocial recovery

Background:

  • Community integration is a critical outcome measure for major burn survivors.
  • Assessing long-term community integration is essential for understanding recovery trajectories.
  • The Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) is a key tool for this assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate changes in community integration scores over time in major burn survivors.
  • To identify demographic and burn-related factors that predict community integration scores.
  • To understand the predictors of different domains of community integration.

Main Methods:

  • A cohort of 463 major burn survivors completed the Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ).

  • CIQ scores were assessed at 6, 12, and 24 months postburn.
  • Statistical analyses were performed to determine changes over time and predictive factors.

    • Main Results:

    • Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) scores did not significantly change between 6 and 24 months postburn.
    • Home integration was predicted by sex and living situation.
    • Social integration was predicted by marital status.
    • Productivity was predicted by functional outcome, burn severity, age, and preburn work status.

    Conclusions:

    • Major burn survivors experience persistent challenges in community integration.
    • These integration difficulties are influenced by both burn-specific and non-burn-related factors.
    • Observed CIQ scores may reflect integration levels achieved prior to the 6-month assessment point.
