Popis: Deaths from smoke inhalation remain depressingly frequent and most often occur because the victim cannot escape the toxic effects of carbon monoxide. Delayed sequelae of smoke inhalation greatly increase the mortality from cutaneous burns. This article outlines the supportive care of smoke casualties and discusses some of the dilemmas in management which result from the absence of specific therapies.
