TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - Classification of inhalation injuries JO - Acta chirurgiae plasticae A1 - Koller, J. A1 - Siska, P. SP - 156 EP - 162 VL - 31 IS - 3 N2 - A new system of classification of inhalation injuries called APB classification is proposed. The classification is based on the anatomical level of the injury (A), degree of pathological changes of the respiratory tract mucosa (P), extent and severity of associated cutaneous burns (B). The authors assume the classification would be of help in the analysis of severity, prognosis and treatment methods of inhalation injuries particularly in larger groups of burn patients.
