Injuria por Inhalación Aguda, Conclusiones

La injuria por inhalación aguda es un diagnóstico sindromático con causas y consecuencias diversas. El conocimiento de la fisiopatología, factores y situaciones de riesgo, permitirá al clínico establecer una más precisa valoración. Desafortunadamente aún se requiere más información e investigación sobre esta entidad que genera muchas preguntas relacionadas con la susceptibilidad individual, los mecanismos de daño y los factores de riesgo para secuelas crónicas, donde incluso, se puede hacer referencia a desarrollo de cáncer y fibrosis pulmonar.
