Complications and risk factors in burn patients of the Surgery Service at Hospital II - 2 Tarapoto 2020 – 2021 Burn injuries represent a health concern that impacts people of all ages, not only due to their high incidence, but also because of the possible complications that may arise, such as disabilities and permanent injuries. In Peru there are no precise statistical data; studies have been mostly carried out in the child population, so it is necessary to consider the complications and risk factors in burns within the general population. The purpose of this research is: To know the association between complications and risk factors in burns of patients attended at the Surgery Service of the Hospital II - 2 Tarapoto 2020-2021. The type of study was descriptive, quantitative, retrospective, cross-sectional and correlational. The sample consisted of 68 patients hospitalized with burns. The documentary review technique was used and a data collection form was used as a data collection tool. The data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics; the Chi-square test, Yates correction and Cramer's V were used to determine the strength of the association between the variables. Results: Children under 12 years of age were the most affected by burns in 55.9% of the population; the most frequent cause of burns was thermal burns with 39.7%. The predominant anatomical location was the head and neck in 29.4%. In terms of body surface area burned, 73.5% had less than or equal to 10%. The 35.3% presented superficial II degree burns. Regarding the time elapsed before admission to the hospital, 75% of the cases were attended within one day of the accident. Most of the hospital stay was less than or equal to 7 days (63.3%), followed by 8 to 14 days (20.6%). The most frequent complications were musculoskeletal: keloids (32.4%) and deformities (2.9%). In conclusion, a statistically significant association was found between complications and risk factors: age, degree of burn, time elapsed before hospital admission and hospital stay. The risk factors for which no association was found were: sex, origin, causes of burn, location and burned body surface area.
