BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Inhalation injury increases morbidity and mortality in burn patients. Patients with inhalation injury present with large differences between end-tidal CO
METHODS METHODS
This retrospective study included 51 adult subjects with burns and inhalation injuries. Demographics, size of burns, length of stay, ventilator days, blood gas results, end-tidal CO
RESULTS RESULTS
Our population had a mean age of 52 y and an average burn size of 17.5%. The average length of stay and ventilator days were 12 d and 3.8 d, respectively. The mean modified Baux score was 87. The mean [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] was 0.38. Ten subjects died, and 6 subjects had pneumonia. The [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] of survivors was significantly smaller for survivors than for subjects who died (0.34 vs 0.52,
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Alveolar dead space ([Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text]) is easily calculated from [Formula: see text] and end-tidal CO
