Adults with well‐healed burn injuries have lower pulmonary function values decades after injury

Abstract Sub‐acute (e.g., inhalation injury) and/or acute insults sustained during a severe burn injury impairs pulmonary function. However, previous work has not fully characterized pulmonary function in adults with well‐healed burn injuries decades after an injury. Therefore, we tested the hypothe...
