Mechanical Ventilation in the Burn Patient
Among the most difficult to treat are severely burned, patients. We examined the conditions of these patients individually and the organ involvement. It is impossible to manage them because they are dealing with multi-organ dysfunction, which affects all system homeostasis. This chapter focuses on t...

| Sumario: | Among the most difficult to treat are severely burned, patients. We examined the conditions of these patients individually and the organ involvement. It is impossible to manage them because they are dealing with multi-organ dysfunction, which affects all system homeostasis. This chapter focuses on the respiratory system, specifically the mechanical ventilation strategies to improve the outcome in the onset of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and inhalation injury in severely burned patients, beginning with initial airway management and progressing to new ventilation strategies and modes to assist health providers in choosing what is best for their patients. |
