There are many various medical scales used in different clinical situations for scoring and prognostication the disease outcome. Burns are a group of heterogeneous disorders, which, depending on severity, may be treated in various settings – from outpatient clinic to intensive care units. Consequently they are also associated with different outcome. Over the years many scales and models were created to assess the prognosis and, in consequence, to help choosing the mode of treatment. Simultaneously constant improvement in intensive care reduces the predictive value of older models. In this paper authors searched the available literature for prognostic factors in burn patients as well as for clinical scales based on that disease.
