Abstract | Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning resulting in diffuse tissue hypoxia. Ce hypoxia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after CO poisoning. some clinical criteria that could help a physician to make a decision conc application of hyperbaric oxygenation therapy. However, it would be co to discover an objective biochemical serum marker that could help in the evaluation of CO poisoning and indication of therapy in CO-poisoned p present two case reports where the established criteria for the CO poiso not optimum for the decision regarding therapy. It seems that the 5-100 could be used as a biochemical marker of CO induced brain injury. 5-10 could perhaps help us to select patients for hyperbaric oxygen therapy a predict the short and long term outcome. | |
