Background: Fires and burns incidence are on constant rise. Efforts had been made since very ancient times to curb such debilitating injuries resulting from domestic violence, vitriol incidences, accidents and mishaps. Treating the burns always had been an intricate matter of concern. Since primitive times the treatment modalities had been changed over and over in the search of best available options.

Aim: To compare the efficacy of empirical treatment with that of advanced medical care among the victims of burns.

Methods: The study comprised of 300 cases of burns presented from January to December 2020 in Accidents and Emergency Department of the Jannah Hospital Lahore for empirical treatment and those managed in the Burn Center of Jannah Hospital Lahore for advanced medical care of burns. Those who have been referred from periphery and could not get advanced medical care or had their wound healed when brought to above set-up were considered as treated as empirically managed burn victims.

Results:        The comparative analysis of empirical therapy and advanced medical care revealed significant difference when observed among the literacy level and medium of burns with 0.000 value of p. While no significance difference was observed when analysis was carried out for age and gender with a p value of 0.187 and 0.496 respectively.
