With improvements in survival rates after a burn injury, there is a need for patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) to capture the impacts of burn injury and recovery patterns. The Life Impact Burn Recovery Evaluation (LIBRE) Profile was developed to measure the psychosocial and social participation ramifications of burn injury. The aim of this study, a collaboration of researchers from the Victorian Adult Burn Service, and the Western Australian Burn Injury Research Unit was to adapt American LIBRE Profile items and validate the translated version against Australian cultural and language preferences.
