Abstract

Carbon monoxide (CO) toxicity should be considered in patients presenting to the emergency department with any acute vague manifestations after hookah smoking; furthermore, smoking in an open space does not eliminate the risk of CO toxicity. High-flow supplemental oxygen should be provided immediately while further investigations and management options are considered.
