Abstract
Inhalation injury, with a certain incidence rate and a high mortality in clinic, has always garnered the attention of various healthcare professionals. In recent years, while the incidence rate of burns with inhalation injury has been decreasing, the treatment of inhalation injury should not be overlooked, as there is still room for improvement in its diagnosis and treatment. With the deepening understanding of inhalation injury mechanisms and the continuous emergence of new concepts about lung injury, it may offer insights and strategies for clinical diagnosis and treatment of inhalation injury. This paper addresses some of these insights and concepts from the perspectives of molecular mechanisms, diagnostic evaluations, and treatment of inhalation injury for the reference of our colleagues.
