Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Journal Armed Forces India, 2007
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a nonirritating colourless, odourless gas produced by incomplete burning of carbon containing fossil fuels. The normal concentration in atmosphere is less than 0.001% and a concentration of 0.1% can be lethal. It causes thousands of uncalled for deaths each year.
