Abstract

Inhalation injury is one of the important causes of death in critically burned patients, and rich experiences have been accumulated in the diagnosis and treatment. However, the understanding of some new biomarkers, evidence-based evidences, and diagnosis and treatment measures is still very limited. In this review, on the basis of our team’s experiences in clinical treatment, we discuss the new diagnostic principles (such as dynamic diagnosis, airway depth grading theory, biomarkers, etc.) and the new treatments (such as chest physical therapy, artificial nose and high flow respiratory humidification therapeutic apparatus in airway management, atmospheric pressure high concentration oxygen therapy, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support, etc.). New comprehensive protocols and evidence-based evidences for the diagnosis and treatment of inhalation injury are summarized. The treatment of inhalation injury is a multi-faceted and multi-disciplinary comprehensive diagnosis and treatment. It is of great clinical significance to explore new measures to improve the early diagnosis and management.
