carbon monoxide and Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

carbon monoxide has been researched along with Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest in 1 studies

Carbon Monoxide: Carbon monoxide (CO). A poisonous colorless, odorless, tasteless gas. It combines with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, which has no oxygen carrying capacity. The resultant oxygen deprivation causes headache, dizziness, decreased pulse and respiratory rates, unconsciousness, and death. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carbon monoxide : A one-carbon compound in which the carbon is joined only to a single oxygen. It is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, toxic gas.

Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: Occurrence of heart arrest in an individual when there is no immediate access to medical personnel or equipment.

" Patients were classified into two groups depending on the asphyxiating agent involved; simple (argon, carbon dioxide, helium, liquified petroleum gas, nitrogen) and systemic (carbon monoxide, cyanides, hydrogen sulfide, methemoglobin-inducing substances, smoke inhalation)."4.12Epidemiology of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests that occur secondary to chemical asphyxiants: A retrospective series.
