Description
Summary:ABSTRACT. The diagnostic standard for airway burn in inhalation trauma is bronchoscopy. Determining the severity of a burn of the respiratory tract within first 24 hours is difficult due to the multiple foci of fixed soot, therefore, this procedure is possible only after its removal. Optimization of the standard method of sanitation bronchoscopy in case of airway burn by removing soot with endoscopic forceps and brushes significantly increase the efficacy of primary endoscopic diagnosis, which amounts to 74.9%. The most common mistakes in diagnosing the severity of mucosal damage are associated with a burn of the 1st degree.
