Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India] May 30: Human BioSciences (HBS) is on a mission to increase awareness about burn injuries and introduce life-saving solutions to the public. In recent times, India has witnessed a concerning rise in burn cases, with over 7 million new burn injuries reported annually in 2024, resulting in approximately 140,000 deaths each year. This alarming trend highlights the critical need for immediate, effective care.
The Indian government, along with various non-governmental organizations, has been striving to improve burn care infrastructure, but there remains a significant gap in public awareness and access to advanced treatment options. HBS is dedicated to bridging this gap by educating communities about burn prevention and providing innovative medical products that can significantly improve patient outcomes.
Burn injuries can occur in various situations, from household accidents to workplace incidents and even during traditional ceremonies. Regardless of the cause, it’s essential to prioritize safety and seek prompt medical attention. The National Burn Centre in Mumbai advises individuals to assess safety first, use cool water to extinguish flames, and refrain from removing stuck clothes, instead covering the burn with a clean cloth and seeking medical help immediately.
