Abstract

We have followed in a pilot study a group of patients for cytological and biochemical changes of lavage in the upper and lower respiratory system. Into the study patients with respiratory burns confirmed by bronchoscopy and skiagraphy were included. We divided patients according to the Lung Injury Scores (LIS). We obtained the values in our sample group between intubation and last swab (before extubation). Listed are the risk factors, probability of survival, and lung histology results are listed for patients who died.
