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 injuries comprise three distinct clinical entities that may be classified according to the time of onset of symptoms, etiologic agents, and the anatomic location of injury. These entities are carbon monoxide toxicity, upper airway obstruction, and smoke inhalation or chemical injury.

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.

The lungs can be an efficient means for the absorption of inhaled toxicants, resulting in airway and pulmonary injury or systemic toxicity. Although a few specific antidotes exist for inhaled toxicants, the syndrome of acute inhalation injury and clinical therapeutics are linked by common pathways of pathophysiology.
