Abstract

This article analysis the meteorological data during the outbreaks of carbon monoxide poisoning and the conditions of 108 poisoned people in Baishan District from Oct., 1980 to Feb., 1985. The results showed that most of the poisoning cases happened in the months of the lowest air temperature. The main factors affecting poisoning were season, wind direction, raifall and atmospheric pressure, of secondary importance were air temperature and humidity. The time when CO poisoning most easily took place when the night was without wind, accompanied by snowfall or rainfall. The atmospheric pressure value was lower than average month value, and the humidity higher than average month value. The writer proposes to use the "average month value" method for forecasting "similar date" method.
