Cardiopulmonary Dysfunction After Smoke Inhalation Injury
With the inhalation of smoke, there are both cardiopulmonary changes and elevated levels of carbon monoxide (CO). We hypothesize that these changes in cardiopulmonary function are the result of a histotoxic hypoxia associated with CO poisoning. This hypothesis was tested in chronically instrumented sheep (n= 19). Piezoelectric crystals were attached to the left ventricle for the measurement of ...
متن کاملInflammatory mediators in smoke inhalation injury.
Smoke inhalation occurs in 10% to 30% of patients admitted to burn centers, and increases mortality by a maximum of 20% over that predicted by age and extent of cutaneous burn alone. Pneumonia in these patients then further increases mortality by a maximum of 40%. While one estimate suggested that 75% of deaths following burn injury may be accounted for by inhalation injury, more recent cohort ...
متن کاملSmoke Inhalation Lung Injury: An Update
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to present a multifaceted, definitive review of the past and current status of smoke inhalation injury. History along with current understanding of anatomical, physiology, and biologic components will be discussed. METHODS The literature has been reviewed from the early onset of the concept of smoke inhalation in the 1920s to our current understanding a...
متن کاملPathophysiological basis of smoke inhalation injury.
Smoke inhalation injury results in serious respiratory failure. When smoke inhalation injury is combined with burn injury or pneumonia, the physiological responses are different and more severe than those of smoke inhalation injury alone. Treatment strategies should be planned based on these pathophysiological aspects.
متن کاملFire and smoke inhalation injury in horses.
Although not common in horses, fire and smoke inhalation trauma may require veterinary assistance at several levels. Most commonly, the equine clinician is called on to provide care of potentially complex and emotionally charged cases. Thermal injury, along with smoke inhalation, can cause local and diffuse lesions. Massive tissue edema may occur, which can be a challenge to manage as well as c...
