Abstract

After a burn lesion, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) may occur via direct lung injury due to inhaled smoke and fumes or mediated by the inflammatory response associated with the burn or its infectious complications. A prospective cohort study was performed from January to December 2025. Demographic and diagnostic data, prognostic scores, etiology and data on the extent and depth of burns were collected. Data related to risk factors for ARDS and death were also recorded. A total of 85 patients were included in the study. The mean total body surface area burned was 28.3%; 35.3% presented inhalation injuries. ARDS was diagnosed in 38.6% of patients under invasive mechanical ventilation. Mortality rate observed in the study patients was high and associated with ARDS diagnosis.
