AIM: For patients with inhalation injury, the indications for early intubation are diverse. The purpose of this study was to identify the most reliable symptoms, physical findings, and medical examinations with which to determine the indications for early intubation...

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

Scientifica

Onodera M, Fujino Y, Kikuchi S, Sato M, Mori K, Beppu T, Inoue Y.
PMID: 27239377
Scientifica (Cairo). 2016;2016:6192369. doi: 10.1155/2016/6192369. Epub 2016 Apr 30.

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 carboxyhemoglobin concentration...

A Rare Cause of Chronic Headache that May Be Misdiagnosed as Migraine: Chronic Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.

Turkish journal of emergency medicine

Kanburoglu MK, Cizmeci MN, Akelma AZ.
PMID: 27331183
Turk J Emerg Med. 2016 Feb 26;14(3):132-4. doi: 10.5505/1304.7361.2014.00868. eCollection 2014 Sep.

Differential diagnosis of primary headache disorders can be challenging for physicians. Although the association of headache with acute carbon monoxide intoxication is very well-defined, in refractory nonspecific headaches associated with chronic low dose exposure to carbon monoxide, CO intoxication...

Immunohistochemical investigation of pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A in fire victims.

Legal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)

Zhu BL, Ishida K, Oritani S, Quan L, Taniguchi M, Li DR, Fujita MQ, Maeda H.
PMID: 12935729
Leg Med (Tokyo). 2001 Mar;3(1):23-8. doi: 10.1016/s1344-6223(01)00006-2.

To evaluate the forensic pathological significance of the immunohistochemical distribution of pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A (SP-A) in determining the cause of death in fires, 57 fire victims were examined by scoring the staining intensity. The highest SP-A score with...

Subpicosecond time-resolved vibrational spectroscopy by transient infrared absorption.

Optics letters

Jedju TM, Rothberg L, Labrie A.
PMID: 19746092
Opt Lett. 1988 Nov 01;13(11):961-3. doi: 10.1364/ol.13.000961.

A technique to record transient vibrational spectra with 0.5-psec resolution is reported. The apparatus is based on seeded optical parametric amplification. A study of the microscopic details of the photodissociation of carboxyhemoglobin is described as an example.

Investigation of relationship between inhalation injury assessment and prognosis in burn patients.

Journal of the Korean Surgical Society

Yang HT, Yim H, Cho YS, Kim D, Hur J, Chun W, Kim JH, Jung SY, Kim BC, Lee JJ.
PMID: 22066094
J Korean Surg Soc. 2011 Jul;81(1):1-9. doi: 10.4174/jkss.2011.81.1.1. Epub 2011 Jul 11.

PURPOSE: Inhalation injury is one of the most severe morbidity and mortality factors in burn patients. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of inhalation injury to the prognosis of burn patients and to investigate the...

Effect of exhaust emissions on carbon monoxide levels in employees working at indoor car wash facilities.

Hippokratia

Topacoglu H, Katsakoglou S, Ipekci A.
PMID: 25125950
Hippokratia. 2014 Jan;18(1):37-9.

BACKGROUND: Exhaust emissions from motor vehicles threaten the environment and human health. Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, especially the use of exhaust gas CO in suicidal attempts is well known in the literature. Recently, indoor car wash facilities established in...

Comparison of end tidal carbon monoxide (eCO) levels in shisha (water pipe) and cigarette smokers.

Tobacco induced diseases

Akhter S, Ali Warraich U, Rizvi N, Idrees N, Zaina F.
PMID: 25206319
Tob Induc Dis. 2014 Jul 04;12(1):10. doi: 10.1186/1617-9625-12-10. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: Measuring eCo is rapid, non-invasive and inexpensive tool and correlate correctly with carboxyhemoglobin levels in blood. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the increase in end tidal carbon monoxide (eCO) levels in exhaled breath...

Evaluating nicotine levels selection and patterns of electronic cigarette use in a group of "vapers" who had achieved complete substitution of smoking.

Substance abuse : research and treatment

Farsalinos KE, Romagna G, Tsiapras D, Kyrzopoulos S, Voudris V.

BACKGROUND: Electronic cigarettes (ECs) are alternative-to-smoking nicotine delivery devices; consumers (commonly called vapers) use them in order to reduce or completely substitute smoking. The European Commission has released a proposal for a new Tobacco Product Directive that might reduce...

Endogenous carbon monoxide production in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation-related hemolysis: potential use of point-of-care CO-oximetry carboxyhemoglobin to detect hemolysis.

Clinical case reports

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)-related hemolysis is a rare but devastating condition. Death is inevitable without early recognition and prompt management. Endogenous carbon monoxide production, as an epiphenomenon of hemolysis, potentially allows rapid detection of such condition by use of...
