Abstract

Patients may develop significant carbon monoxide intoxication under a variety of circumstances. We propose that the frequency of symptoms, the patient's presentation, and ultimately the outcome are significantly related to the type of exposure. This association may help the practicing physician maintain the proper index of suspicion for recognizing carbon monoxide poisoning and providing the proper treatment for severe cases.
