The difficulties of present-day forensic medical expert evaluation of poisonings in fires are explained by exposure of man to highly toxic compounds that form during burning of polymers. Analyzing forensic medical expert evaluations of a large number of victims dead in a large-scale fire, the authors emphasize the necessity of measuring not only dead people's blood levels of HbCO, but of some other toxic combustion products that may exert combined effects on human body. The authors think it desirable that criteria of forensic medical evaluation of combined poisoning in fire be defined.
当前法医对火灾中毒害情况进行专业鉴定存在困难，这是由于人体接触到聚合物燃烧过程中形成的剧毒化合物。通过分析大量在大规模火灾中死亡受害者的法医鉴定，作者强调不仅要测量死者血液中的碳氧血红蛋白（HbCO）水平，还需测量其他一些可能对人体产生综合影响的有毒燃烧产物。作者认为，界定火灾中复合中毒法医鉴定标准是可取的。
