RESUMO

Airway edema following burns is a typical occurrence. It poses a threat, independent of percent Total Burn Surface Area (TBSA), to the life of the patient. Fiber optic bronchoscopy is the gold standard in its diagnosis and is preferred if the facilities are present. Its availability remains a problem in the majority of burn centers in developing countries like India. Ascoring system based on clinical findings, if formulated in a manner that reflects bronchoscopy results, may help not only with diagnosis but also with airway management in inhalation burns. One hundred patients suffering from facial burns were included in the study. They were observed clinically and bronchoscopically and airway was managed on the basis of clinical, biochemical and bronchoscopic findings. Fifty patients who showed significant bronchoscopic findings on day 1 were followed up. Clinicobronchoscopic correlation revealed a positive correlation of various clinical variables as well as bronchoscopic grading with subsequent need for endotracheal intubation. Edema of tongue/floor of the mouth and palatal edema showed a positive correlation with subsequent need for tracheostomy. This clinicobronchoscopic correlation was then used retrospectively to formulate the Safdarjung Hospital 'INHALATION' score. This score can be used for predicting impending airway compromise when bronchoscopy facilities are not readily available.


La survenue d'un œdème des voies aériennes est un classique après une brûlure, entraînant un risque indépendant de la surface atteinte. L'endoscopie bronchique est l'examen diagnostique de référence et doit être réalisée si le matériel est disponible, ce qui est problématique dans les pays en développement dont l'Inde. Un score reflétant les données endoscopiques peut aider non seulement au diagnostic mais aussi au traitement des lésions d'inhalation. Cette étude a porté sur 100 patients ayant une brûlure faciale, ayant bénéficié d'un examen clinique et endoscopique et traités selon ces données et celles de la biochimie. La moitié des patients avaient des anomalies endoscopiques au premier examen. Les données cliniques (dont un œdème de la langue, du plancher buccal ou du palais) et endoscopiques prédisaient bien la nécessité d'une trachéotomie. Ces corrélations nous ont permis de développer le score INHALATION de l'hôpital Safdarjung, qui peut permettre de prédire une complication ventilatoire quand l'endoscopie n'est pas disponible.
