Burns, Including Thermal Injury
|February 1, 1988
Abstract:
Inhalation injury is a relatively common complication of burn injury requiring early attention with respect to diagnosis and therapy, and frequent assessments of the tracheobronchial status. Clinical, radiological and laboratory findings often cannot fulfil these needs. Therefore the advantages of flexible fibreoptic bronchoscopy (FFB) in diagnosis and therapy of respiratory tract injury are shown by these case reports.
