Carboxyhemoglobin as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of hemolytic anemias in dogs

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2023
Background Endogenous production of carbon monoxide during hemoglobin metabolism leads to the formation of carboxyhemoglobin. Carboxyhemoglobin concentration is abnormally high in humans with hemolytic anemia (HA).

Carboxyhemoglobin changes in relation to inspired oxygen fraction during general anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Journal of Anesthesia and Intensive Therapy, 2017
Measurement of carboxyhemoglobin could be a new method for evaluation of the severity of inflammatory airway disease, acute organ dysfunction, or stress by surgery and anesthesia.

Can indicators of myocardial damage predict carbon monoxide poisoning outcomes?

open access: yesBMC Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Carbon monoxide causes electrical, functional, and morphological changes in the heart. It is unclear, however, whether the indicators of myocardial damage can predict the patient’s prognosis after carbon monoxide poisoning.

Carboxyhemoglobin and Methemoglobin in Asthma [PDF]

open access: yesLung, 2015
Nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are synthesized at high levels in asthmatic airways. NO can oxidize hemoglobin (Hb) to methemoglobin (MetHb). CO binds to heme to produce carboxyhemoglobin (COHb). We hypothesized that MetHb and COHb may be increased in asthma.

Carbon monoxide poisoning - cases, pathophysiology, management

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2023
Carbon monoxide poisoning is a common clinical problem, especially in autumn and winter. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas and poisoning causes hypoxia, cell damage and consequently, can lead to death.

Assessment of the Relationship Between Carbon Monoxide Poisoning and Red Cell Distribution Width, Hemogram, Leukocyte, Neutrophil, Lymphocyte, Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio

open access: yesForbes Tıp Dergisi, 2023
Objective: Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a condition which oxygen transport is reduced and presentation is impaired. Red cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with many diseases.

Toxic Blood Hydrogen Cyanide Concentration as a Vital Sign of a Deceased Room Fire Victim—Case Report

open access: yesToxics, 2021
Carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) are two common toxic products of combustion. HCN concentrations of fire victims are not routinely determined in most legal medicine services in Romania. We present the case of a room fire victim in which we

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide intoxication during pregnancy. A case report and brief review of the literature

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning during pregnancy is a rare occurrence, associated with high maternal and fetal mortality rates. As CO can cross the placenta, leading to intrauterine hypoxia, CO intoxication can result in neurological sequelae and ...

Utility of the Measurement of Carboxyhemoglobin Level at the Site of Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in Rural Areas

open access: yesScientifica, 2016
Objective. This study examined the hypothesis that correlations exist between the carbon monoxide exposure time and the carboxyhemoglobin concentration at the site of carbon monoxide poisoning, using a pulse carbon monoxide oximeter in rural areas or the
