Toxic inhalants include various xenobiotics. Irritants cause upper and lower respiratory tract injuries. Highly water-soluble agents injure the upper respiratory tract, while low water-soluble inhalants injure the lower track. Asphyxiants are divided into simple asphyxiants and chemical asphyxiants.

Inhalation Injury: Smoke Inhalation
The American Journal of Nursing, 1980noxious gases and particles which can produce such symptoms as hypoxemia, as well as orolaryngeal, tracheal, and pulmonary irritation and damage. Some of these gases are systemically toxic and some are toxic only to the lungs. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a systemically toxic gas produced from combustion; it is not a pulmonary irritant.

Inhalation injuries occur in approximately one-third of all major burns and account for a significant number of deaths in those burn patients each year. Victims die as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning, hypoxia, and smoke inhalation. These deaths can occur without thermal wounds as well as with burn injuries.

Inhalation of gases, vapors and aerosols can cause a wide range of adverse health effects, ranging from simple irritation to systemic diseases. The large number of chemicals and complex mixtures present in indoor and outdoor air coupled with the introduction of new materials such as nanoparticles and nanofibers, is an area of growing concern for human ...

Unfortunately, fires are common events both in urban and rural portions of the United States. Smoke inhalation is the leading fire-related cause of death. The elemental combustion products of fire are light, heat, and smoke. Smoke is a very complex mixture of potentially harmful substances.

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2001
Sevoflurane and desflurane have important advantages over isoflurane and halothane. Disadvantages, which the clinician should keep in mind, include the degradation of both agents by soda lime under certain circumstances during closed circuit anaesthesia.

AbstractInhalation injury is a critical component of thermal injury that can significantly increase mortality in burn survivors. This poses significant challenges to managing these patients and profoundly impacts patient outcomes. This comprehensive literature review delves into the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, classification, management ...

Inhaled insulin has attractive pharmacodynamic properties with a fast onset of action which should lead to improved postprandial blood glucose concentrations. Comparisons with regular subcutaneous (sc) insulin in clinical studies, however, showed lower fasting blood glucose concentrations. Overall, clinical efficacy of inhaled insulin was comparable to

Until recently, inhalational anthrax was a medical curiosity in both the Western medical literature and clinical practice. The post-September 11, 2001 outbreak of this disease in the eastern United States that spread through the mail, however, instantly changed the appreciation of this disease and the appreciation of biological terrorism/warfare in ...
