Parametric Evaluation of the CFK and the MIL-STD-1472 Equations as Tools for the Estimation of Blood COHb Levels [PDF]
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless byproduct of incomplete combustion that binds to hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin (COHb), impairing oxygen delivery and causing systemic hypoxia.

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

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

Can indicators of myocardial damage predict carbon monoxide poisoning outcomes?
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]
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.

An Ultracentrifugal Study of the Dissociation of Human Carboxyhemoglobin [PDF]
The dissociation of human carboxyhemoglobin has been investigated by means of sedimentation velocity measurements. Sedimentation studies on this protein have been extended to concentrations as low as 0.002% by the use of absorption optics. Hemoglobin was

IntroductionPlasma free hemoglobin is the gold standard for monitoring hemolysis in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) but its routine use has some limitations. Carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO) is also a marker of intravascular hemolysis.

Relationship between carbon monoxide poisoning, lactate and cardiac marker
INTRODUCTION: Carbon monoxide reduces blood oxygen transport capacity and causes tissue hypoxia by binding to hemoglobin. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between Troponin I, a myocardial injury marker, Lactate, a tissue hypoxia marker and ...
