Critical Care Clinics, 1999 Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is common and frequently unrecognized since the signs and symptoms are relatively nonspecific. CO poisoning causes tissue hypoxia. Additionally, various animal studies have demonstrated that CO interferes with myoglobin, P450, and other enzyme function; causes lipid peroxidation through neutrophil activation; produces ...

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 2001 The deadly effect of carbon monoxide was known as long ago as Greek and Roman times, when the gas was used for executions1. In 1857 Claude Bernard postulated that its noxious effect was caused by reversible displacement of oxygen from haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin2.
