Abstract

Burns are a global issue which may result in lifelong multi-morbidities and disproportionately affect low-resource settings. Prioritising research of importance to patients and healthcare professionals improves evidence-based care. This was undertaken in global burns care (focussing on thermal non-electrical burns) by establishing a James Lind Alliance research priority setting partnership. Over two years, two online, multi-lingual surveys with patients, carers and clinicians, sixteen interviews and a virtual priority setting workshop were conducted to identify and prioritise questions for research. Survey responses were received from participants in 88 countries (survey 1 respondents n=1617, survey 2 respondents n=630). A short-list of 19 research priorities were ranked at an online workshop attended by 28 participants (healthcare professional n=14, burn survivor n=10, carer/advocate n=4) from 15 countries to produce the final top 10 research priorities. These priorities provide opportunities for researchers, funders and clinicians to shape the future of burns research and improve burns care globally.
