Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
Determination of netrin-1 levels and its relationship with neurotoxicity in carbon monoxide poisoning.
Abstract: The aim of the study was to assess netrin-1 levels in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning to determine its relationship with poisoning severity and neurotoxicity. This is a cross-sectional prospective study. The patients older than 18 years with CO poisoning were...
Determination of carboxyhemoglobin half-life in patients with carbon monoxide toxicity treated with high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Acute carbon monoxide poisoning is a common environmental emergency worldwide. Treatment options are limited to normobaric oxygen therapy with a nonrebreather face mask or endotracheal tube and hyperbaric oxygen. The aim of this study is to determine the...
Carbon monoxide poisoning in Denmark with focus on mortality and factors contributing to mortality.
Abstract: Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is frequent worldwide but knowledge regarding the epidemiology is insufficient. The aim of this study was to clarify the extent of this intoxication, its mortality and factors associated with mortality. National databases from...
Convulsive seizure and pulmonary edema during hyperbaric oxygen therapy:A case report.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is widely performed to prevent delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome. Although HBOT can generally be performed with safety, the appropriate management of HBOT still remains unestablished. A...
Treatment with normobaric or hyperbaric oxygen and its effect on neuropsychometric dysfunction after carbon monoxide poisoning: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Abstract: Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning may result in acute neurological sequelae, cognitive sequelae, and delay neurological sequelae. The administration of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) to prevent the development of delayed neurological sequelae in CO poisoning have...
Severe unintentional first trimester carbon monoxide poisoning: case report.
Abstract: The fetus is uniquely susceptible to carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. We present a case of severe unintentional CO poisoning in the first trimester of pregnancy. A 23-year-old G5P2022 female at 11 weeks' gestational age sat in a car with the engine idling. She...
Impact of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Subsequent Neurological Sequelae Following Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on reducing neurological sequelae (NS) in patients with carbon monoxide poisoning (COP). Using a nationwide database of insurance claims in Taiwan, we conducted a...
Targeting optimal time for hyperbaric oxygen therapy following carbon monoxide poisoning for prevention of delayed neuropsychiatric sequelae: A retrospective study.
Abstract: Delayed neuropsychiatric sequelae (DNS) are serious complications of carbon monoxide poisoning; neuropsychiatric disorders can occur within a few days of recovery from acute poisoning. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been the main treatment of carbon...
