Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2009
Inhalation injury consists of a multitude of insults, the first of which is the toxic gases inhaled during the combustion of organic and inorganic substances. Significant morbidity and mortality in patients with burn injury occur due to the varying effects of these gases.

Pathogenicity of Carbon Monoxide
The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1997The effects of carbon monoxide, one of the most commonly encountered toxic agents in forensic practice, have been known for a long time, but the nature of its bonding to the heme prosthetic group of hemoproteins has only recently been elucidated. In addition to reducing the oxygen capacity of the blood and the consequent systemic hypoxia, carbon ...

Respiration Physiology, 1975
The elimination rates of carbon monoxide in anesthetized, spontaneously breathing dogs were determined following acute inhalation of varying amounts of this gas. Blood levels of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) induced ranged between 5 and 43%. Following the administration of carbon monoxide, the decline in arterial blood %COHb was biphasic. The decline in the

### What you need to know A 23 year old man with no medical history presents to the emergency department with a three day history of headache, transient visual disturbance, dizziness, and hypertension. On clinical examination the patient is flushed and drowsy with redness in the sclera, with no further visual or systemic symptoms.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is the most common type of accidental poisoning in the United States, accounting for thousands of emergency department visits and some 800 deaths annually. Carbon monoxide, an insidious byproduct of incomplete hydrocarbon combustion, is generated in toxic amounts by internal-combustion engines, fossil-fuel furnaces, and fires.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, nonirritant gas that accounts for numerous cases of CO poisoning every year from a variety of sources of incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. These include poorly functioning heating systems, indoor propane-powered forklifts, indoor burning of charcoal burning briquettes, riding in the back of pick-up ...

Carbon Monoxide Cardiotoxicity
Journal of Toxicology: Clinical Toxicology, 2001Cardiac dysfunction including arrhythmias and myocardial ischemia have often been reported in carbon monoxide poisoning; scattered punctiform hemorrhages throughout the heart have been documented in autopsy samples. An appropriate diagnostic approach is crucial to assess carbon monoxide cardiac damage.

Carbon Monoxide and the Pancreas
Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, 2012Carbon monoxide (CO), often referred to as the silent killer, is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas. It combines with hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin, which is ineffective for delivering oxygen to animal and human tissues. On the other hand, CO is endogenously produced in the body as a byproduct of heme degradation catalyzed by the heme ...

A 26-year-old man who had become comatose after having inhaled carbon monoxide developed retinal venous engorgement and peripillary hemorrhages. Retinal changes closely resembled those that accompany hypoxemia.
