Journal Club Oct 2025 - Prevalence, risk factors and perceptions of caregivers on burns in children

Welcome to the Harry Crossly Children's Nursing Development Unit (HCCNDU) Journal Club for October 2025. This month we are collectively reading an article about burns in children in Kampala Uganda. The article is titled, ‘Prevalence, risk factors and perceptions of caregivers on burns among children under 5 years in Kisenyi slum, Kampala, Uganda’ and was published in the journal, Injury Epidemiology in 2022. To participate in this journal club, watch the video above and then consider the questions presented at the end (and below for ease of access). You may want to watch with a group of colleagues and then relate the questions to your clinical setting together, but it is also fine to watch and reflect alone. If you have any insights from watching and answering the questions, that you feel happy to share, feel free to comment below. Reflective questions: 1. What did you learn from this article? 2. Were you surprised at the prevalence and frequency of different types of burns reported in this article? Consider the reason for your answer. 3. Do you think that you would find similar results in similar location near your hospital/clinic? 4. What does this make you think about the health education needs of caregivers in your clinical setting? The Harry Crossley Children's Nursing Development Unit is a nurse-led teaching and scholarship unit in the Department of Paediatrics and Child Health at The University of Cape Town, situated at the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. Working with interdisciplinary colleagues from both academic and clinical settings, the goal of the CNDU is to strengthen the capacity of sub-Saharan Africa's nurses to provide contextually appropriate high quality nursing care for children. For more information about CNDU check out our website - https://health.uct.ac.za/childrensnur... A journal club is a planned gathering to review and discuss published research articles and provide a foundation for evidence-based nursing practice. Participation has been found to be positively associated with increased familiarity with the research process, increased scientific reading and professional updating, and application of findings to clinical practice. With more than 10 years’ experience, the HCCNDU journal club has already reached nurses of all cadres in countries across the continent.
