Abstract:
The various systems and organs of the pediatric body are still in the developmental stage, with immature anatomy and physiology. Pediatric patients with inhalation injury are often in critical conditions, being prone to respiratory difficulties and even evolving into acute respiratory distress syndrome. The changes are rapid with extremely high mortality rate, bringing certain challenges to clinical treatment. This article reviews the causes, characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of pediatric inhalation injury for peer reference.
