- Abstract
Staying current and evaluating literature related to pharmacotherapy in burn or inhalation injury can be difficult as burn care teams are multidisciplinary and pertinent content can be spread across a plethora of journals. The goal of this review is to critically evaluate recently published pharmacotherapy-pertinent literature, assist practitioners staying current, and better identify potential future research targets. Twelve board-certified clinical pharmacists with experience caring for patients with burn and inhalation injuries reviewed and graded scientific literature published in 2017 and 2018. An MeSH-based search revealed 1158 articles related to burns, which were published during the 2-year period. One-hundred fifty one were determined to be potentially related to pharmacotherapy. After exclusions, only 82 (7%) remained for scoring, and the top 10 comprehensively presented. More than half of the reviewed manuscripts were assessed as lacking a significant impact on pharmacotherapy. There is a need for higher impact literature to support pharmacotherapy-pertinent treatment of such complex patients.
