Study and translation of systemic control technology for the burn and trauma related lung injuries / 中华烧伤杂志

ABSTRACT

Burns and traumas are common injuries during both peace time and wartime. Lung is the earliest organ subjected to dysfunction and the incidence is highest. The systemic protective technology for the burn and trauma related lung injuries is based on evidence-based medicine and translational medicine. It includes a series of effective measures, such as rescue and treatment scheme for massive burn casualties, prophylactic tracheostomy, protective ventilation strategy, sequential cell protection, and prevention and treatment of sequelae, which prevents aggravation of lung injuries caused by ischemia reperfusion, oxidative stress, and iatrogenic factors, as well as reduces the incidence of complications to ensure the recovery after burns and traumas.
