[Innervation of the respiratory tract in lesions of the airways in patients with burns].
Physical examinations of 343 burnt patients with damaged airways revealed a drastic decline of reflex excitation of their mucosa which resulted in a disordered evacuation ability of the respiratory tract. The morphological substrate of these changes was destruction and death of nerve elements of the airways mucosa which developed during the first week after lesion and led to a decrease of the number of elements in the innervation apparatus of the respiratory tract. The investigations helped to identify the factor responsible for changes in the evacuation ability of the tracheobronchial tree, which is an important component in pathological changes of the airways, and to develop the therapeutic management of respiratory lesions.
