A review is presented of 302 cases in East Denmark in 1982-1986 in which the manner of death was fatal carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. The incidence of this far too frequent single-substance poisoning has as yet not decreased over the years despite preventive measures. The number of fatal CO poisoning cases may diminish as a result of a natural gas project in progress. The purpose of this survey, therefore, is to contribute to the evaluation of the actual causes of these fatal poisonings in East Denmark, and to discuss existing measures that prevent gas poisonings, in the expectation of a decline both in gas suicides and in accidental gas poisonings within the next few years.
本文回顾了1982年至1986年丹麦东部发生的302例死亡案例，这些案例的死亡方式为致命性一氧化碳（CO）中毒。尽管采取了预防措施，但这种极为常见的单一物质中毒的发生率多年来并未下降。由于正在进行的天然气项目，致命性CO中毒案例的数量可能会减少。因此，本次调查的目的是帮助评估丹麦东部这些致命中毒事件的实际原因，并讨论现有的预防气体中毒的措施，以期在未来几年内气体自杀和意外气体中毒事件均有所减少。
