Carbon Monoxide Poisoning from Portable Electrical Generators.
BACKGROUND Portable electrical generators have been responsible for over 800 accidental carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning deaths in the United States from 1999-2012. OBJECTIVES Because mortality figures are typically the only data reported with regard to the adverse effects of generators, we describe a nonfatal segment of the poisoned population to further emphasize the significance of the probl...
متن کاملQuantitative determination of carbon monoxide in blood by gaschromatography.
The gaschromatographic determination of CO in blood has been simplified by using carbon molecular sieve columns for separation of gases. Regeneration of the columns is necessary only after 1000 and more analyses. Moreover, a more simple procedure for evaluating the CO concentration was developed. This procedure is suitable for routine determination in the sensitivity range of 0.2—100 % COHb in ...
متن کاملSuicidal carbon monoxide poisoning has decreased with controls on automobile emissions.
BACKGROUND Highway vehicle CO emissions have decreased 85% since introduction of the catalytic converter in 1975. We sought to examine whether morbidity and mortality from intentional motor vehicle-related CO poisoning have also changed. METHODS Vehicle CO emissions data from 1970-2013 were obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention...
