The main aim of this intervention study is to test the hypothesis if school based educational intervention program will significantly improve the knowledge of primary school student on childhood burn prevention in Kuala Lumpur. The secondary aim the evaluate the association of demographics background, burn injury history with knowledge on burn. The study was conducted in 12 primary school in Kuala Lumpur from 1st January 2015 to 31st December 2017 in three different phases.
According to World Health Organization data, approximately 10% of all unintentional injury deaths are due to fire-related burns. In Malaysia, burn represent about 5.6% (745 cases) of all injuries among children. As childhood burn was not considered as a child health problem comparing to other childhood illnesses, parents and children tends to have less priority in overcome this issue. This highlights the need to transfer the knowledge especially to the children on the burn prevention. By implementing this module on preventing fire, burns and scalds injury among children, knowledge on main causes of burns and their immediate management can be improved at young age.
