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 ...

BACKGROUND Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable, traumatic death. Currently, pre-hospital resuscitation fluids provide preload but not oxygen carrying capacity-a critical blood function that mitigates microvascular ischemia and tissue hypoxia ...

Simplified determination of carboxyhemoglobin.
Abstract This spectrophotometric method for estimating carboxyhemoglobin is based on the production of a two-pigment mixture by reducing oxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin with sodium hydrosulfite . Absorbances of the pigment are measured at 420 and 432 nm. Protecting the solutions against exposure to air is unnecessary.

HIV infection is an independent risk factor for decreased 6-minute walk test distance. [PDF]
BackgroundAmbulatory function predicts morbidity and mortality and may be influenced by cardiopulmonary dysfunction. Persons living with HIV (PLWH) suffer from a high prevalence of cardiac and pulmonary comorbidities that may contribute to higher risk of

Diffusion of Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen Cyanide to Muscles and Blood—An Experimental Study
Postmortem carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) diffusion under ambient conditions was assessed in a human cadaver model. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the postmortem diffusion of HCN and CO greatly affected the ...

Endogenous Carboxyhemoglobin Level Variation in COVID-19 and Bacterial Sepsis: A Novel Approach?
Background: The increased production of carbon monoxide (CO) in sepsis has been proven, but the blood level variations of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) as a potential evolutionary parameter of COVID-19 and sepsis/septic shock have yet to be determined.

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 ...
