Clinical takeaway

Inhalation injury adds substantial risk.

When to use

Population-level prognostication after major burns.

How it works

Revised Baux = age + %TBSA + 17 (if inhalation injury). A value around 110–130 corresponds to roughly 50% mortality in modern series.

Key points

  • Inhalation injury adds substantial risk.
  • An estimate, not an individual prognosis.
  • Modern burn care has improved historical survival.

Worked calculation

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.

How is Revised Baux Score (Burn Mortality) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
Inputs: Age 50 years, % total body surface area burned 30 %, Inhalation injury No → Result: Revised Baux 80（Components: age + %TBSA + 17 (if inhalation injury), Interpretation: Substantial mortality. A revised Baux near ~110–130 corresponds to roughly 50% mortality in modern series.） Inputs: Age 50 years, % total body surface area burned 30 %, Inhalation injury Yes (+17) → Result: Revised Baux 97（Components: age + %TBSA + 17 (if inhalation injury), Interpretation: Substantial mortality.
