Preparing for a Burn Disaster in Brazil Geospatial Modelling to Inform a Coordinated Response

Daher, R., Gause, E., Stewart, B., et al. (2023). Preparing for a Burn Disaster in Brazil: Geospatial Modelling to Inform a Coordinated Response. Burns. 49(5):1201-1208.
The authors mapped and classified burn beds in Brazil to understand the geographic challenges associated with getting burn injury care in a mass casualty burn incident (MCBI). They identified healthcare facilities in Brazil which could increase their capacity in the event of an MCBI to ensure at-risk community members had access to care. Healthcare emergency managers in the U.S. may choose to use these analytical tools when planning for similar incidents.
