Does inhalation injury predict mortality in burns patients or require redefinition? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Inhalation injury is known to be an important factor in predicting mortality in burns patients. However, the diagnosis is complicated by the heterogeneous presentation and inability to determine the severity of inhalation injury.

Nebulized heparin in burn patients with inhalation trauma : safety and feasibility [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Pulmonary hypercoagulopathy is intrinsic to inhalation trauma. Nebulized heparin could theoretically be beneficial in patients with inhalation injury, but current data are conflicting.

Emerging therapies for smoke inhalation injury: a review

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2020
Background Smoke inhalation injury increases overall burn mortality by up to 20 times. Current therapy remains supportive with a failure to identify an optimal or targeted treatment protocol for smoke inhalation injury.

Inhalation Injury Grading Using Transfer Learning Based on Bronchoscopy Images and Mechanical Ventilation Period

Sensors, 2022
The abbreviated injury score (AIS) is commonly used as a grading system for inhalation injuries. While inhalation injury grades have inconsistently been shown to correlate positively with the time mechanical ventilation is needed, grading is subjective ...

Inhalation injury is associated with long-term employment outcomes in the burn population: Findings from a cross-sectional examination of the Burn Model System National Database.

PLoS ONE, 2020
IntroductionInhalation injuries carry significant acute care burden including prolonged ventilator days and length of stay. However, few studies have examined post-acute outcomes of inhalation injury survivors.

Bronchoscopy-derived correlates of lung injury following inhalational injuries: a prospective observational study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a major factor determining morbidity following burns and inhalational injury. In experimental models, factors potentially contributing to ALI risk include inhalation of toxins directly causing cell damage; inflammation; and ...

Positive signs on physical examination are not always indications for endotracheal tube intubation in patients with facial burn

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2022
Background After clinical evaluation in the emergency department (ED), facial burn patients are usually intubated to protect their airways. However, the possibility of unnecessary intubation or delayed intubation after admission exists.

Inhalation of high-concentration hydrogen gas attenuates cognitive deficits in a rat model of asphyxia induced-cardiac arrest. [PDF]

, 2019
Cognitive deficits are a devastating neurological outcome seen in survivors of cardiac arrest. We previously reported water electrolysis derived 67% hydrogen gas inhalation has some beneficial effects on short-term outcomes in a rat model of global brain
