本文描述了1994-1998年华盛顿州与工作有关的烧伤的调查。工人的赔偿数据被用来描述烧伤的一般特征，估计工业索赔率，并比较非住院和住院烧伤病例。对作为监测来源的工人赔偿数据的完整性进行了评价。1994-1998年期间，工人赔偿制度共受理了20 213起烧伤索赔。住院烧伤病例仅占烧伤索赔的1.5%，但却承担了55%的费用。此外，工人赔偿数据低估了烧伤的频率和速度。虽然1994年至1998年期间工人的赔偿要求率有所下降，但与工作有关的烧伤仍然是华盛顿州的一个问题。几个行业（如屋顶，铸造，铝冶炼）被确定为预防烧伤住院治疗，这会导致更大的成本和时间损失的优先事项。
This article describes an investigation of work-related burns in Washington State during 1994–1998. Workers’ compensation data were used to describe the general characteristics of burn injuries, estimate industrial claims rates, and compare nonhospitalized and hospitalized burn cases. The completeness of workers’ compensation data as a source for surveillance was evaluated. During 1994–1998, a total of 20,213 burn claims were accepted by the workers’ compensation system. Hospitalized burn cases represented only 1.5% of burn claims but incurred 55% of the costs. In addition, workers’ compensation data underestimated the frequency and rate of burns. Although workers’ compensation claims rates decreased during 1994–1998, work-related burns remain a problem in Washington State. Several industries (eg, roofing, foundries, and aluminum smelting) were identified as priorities for prevention of burn hospitalizations, which incur the greater cost and time loss.
