dc.description.abstractCarbon monoxide is a highly toxic gas for humans, which is formed as a result of the incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels. It is a difficult gas to detect due to its non-irritant and high diffusion capacity. That is why it is called the "silent killer". While there are complaints of headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and shortness of breath in the acute phase of carbon monoxide poisoning, cardiac ischemic problems, muscle weakness, decreased attention, confusion, convulsions, paralysis, and coma may develop in the chronic period as exposure and severity increase. CO poisoning still remains important because of its mortal course and the fact that it occurs in different people in different ways and at different times, causing difficulties for physicians in the diagnostic process. Although the current technological possibilities are advanced, the suspicion that occurs in the minds of doctors after a good anamnesis is more important than all other methods. The good clinical course of diagnosed patients in the acute period should not mislead doctors. It should be kept in mind that cardiac and neurological findings may occur in the late period and patients should be followed up regularly. © 2024 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
