Filter by:Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a condition that occurs as a result of inhaling carbon monoxide gas and can potentially lead to serious health issues. The treatment of CO poisoning requires urgent medical intervention. Methods used in the treatment of CO poisoning include normobaric oxygen (oxygen at normal pressure), high-flow oxygen, non-invasive continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Studies on these methods are available in the literature.
The goal of this pilot, clinical, experimental, biological and prospective study with uso of biological material (venous blood sampling), in patient with acute carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication and in a group of healthy non-intoxicated subject (group of control) is the research of a possible increase of circulating microparticles level in human blood with an acute carbon monoxide intoxication. The main question to answer is: Is there an increase of circulating microparticles levels in subjects with acute carbon monoxide poisoning? Two blood samples will be withdrawn from patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning, one before and one after hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Researchers will compare a group of healthy volunteers to see if there is a different in circulating microparticles blood level compared to patients with intoxication.
This randomized trial will investigate important neurocognitive clinical outcomes of patients with acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCOP) randomized to receive either therapeutic hypothermia or normothermia combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO).
This prospective cohort study enrolls subjects who experience carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. The purpose of the study is to evaluate therapeutic effects of various treatments and short and long-term outcomes in CO poisoned patients. In addition, complications of brain and heart susceptible to CO are investigated through various ways and the association between complications and the patient's prognosis is also investigated. All subjects will be regularly monitored by physicians participating in this study.
The aim of the study is to test whether oxygen therapy delivered through high-flow nasal cannula devices in patients admitted to the emergency department for acute carbon monoxide poisoning is superior to the non-rebreathing oxygen face mask therapy with a 15 L/minute oxygen flow (currently the first-line therapy), in terms of reduction of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) concentration and delayed neurological sequelae incidence.

The RAD-57 pulse CO-oximeter is a lightweight device allowing non-invasive measurement of blood carboxyhemoglobin. Previous studies comparing RAD-57 measurements (SpCO) to standard laboratory blood gas analysis (COHb) have reported contradictory results. the RAD-57 pulse CO-oximeter could be useful as a first-line screening test for acute CO poisoning, enabling rapid detection and management of patients with suspected CO poisoning in the prehospital emergency setting This study assesses the diagnostic value of pulse CO-oximetry, comparing SpCO to standard laboratory blood measurement for prehospital management of patients with suspected carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning.
In this study, the investigators will collect EEG data in normal, healthy volunteers without a history of prior brain injury. This data will be analyzed by computer (quantitative, or qEEG) and stored in a normative database so that, in the future, the investigators can better understand and characterize the brain damage that can result from carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and other types of brain injury.
