An Appraisal of Pharmacotherapy-Pertinent Literature Published in 2023 and 2024 for Clinicians Caring for Patients with Thermal or Inhalation Injury
Pharmacotherapy interventions following thermal or inhalation injury remain an underrepresented area of focus in the literature, with studies dispersed across a broad array of journals. This review builds upon several years of previous efforts to highlight and summarize the most recent, quality pharmacotherapy-focused studies in the context of thermal and inhalation injuries. Twenty-five geographically dispersed, board-certified pharmacists participated in the review. A Medical Subject Heading-based, filtered search resulted in 2234 manuscripts over the previous 2-year period. After manual review, 78 (3.5%) manuscripts were determined to have a potential impact on current pharmacotherapy practice. Summaries of the 10 articles scored to have the highest impact are included in this review. There exists a continued need for high-impact research addressing pharmacotherapeutic strategies in the management of patients with thermal and inhalation injuries.
