Objective:
To review our clinical experiences in the treatment of extensive burn accompanied by severe inhalation injury.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted of 18 such cases admitted from 2000 to 2003 in light of the curative rate, mortality rate and measures for effective management.
Results And Conclusions:
Fifteen patients (83.3%) were cured and 3 (16.7%) died. The curative rate of extensive burn accompanied by severe inhalation injury can be enhanced by combining various treatments, including early preventive tracheostomy, appropriate tracheobronchial lavage, humidification and application of ambroxol; protective lung ventilation, and administration of growth hormones should be done as early as possible.
