Determinants of Carboxyhemoglobin Levels and Relationship with Sepsis in a Retrospective Cohort of Preterm Neonates. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Carboxyhemoglobin levels in blood reflect endogenous carbon monoxide production and are often measured during routine blood gas analysis. Endogenous carbon monoxide production has been reported to be increased during sepsis, but carboxyhemoglobin levels ...

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

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

Significance of the carboxyhemoglobin level for out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest

open access: yesJournal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2012
Background: At low concentrations, carbon monoxide (CO) can confer cyto and tissue-protective effects, such as endogenous Heme oxygenase 1 expression, which has antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and antiapoptotic effects.

Retrospective Assessment of Factors Affecting Carboxyhemoglobin Levels in Patients Undergoing Robotic Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesGazi Medical Journal
Objective: Electrocautery in laparoscopic surgeries converts abdominal carbon dioxide gas into carbon monoxide, which binds to hemoglobin with a higher affinity than oxygen and can impair oxygen transport and lead to hypoxia.
