Breath measurement of carbon monoxide (CO) can be rapidly performed in the emergency department setting by a reliable method that closely approximates carboxyhemoglobin. This method is helpful in the immediate determination of CO exposure for individual patients, but could serve as a valuable triage aid when large groups of patients are suspected of CO exposure. Serial CO determinations can be obtained during oxygen treatment to monitor for improvements without painful needle punctures and needless consumption of professional time and expense.
通过一种可靠的、与碳氧血红蛋白密切相关的方法，可在急诊科快速进行一氧化碳（CO）呼气测量。该方法有助于立即确定个体患者的CO暴露情况，而且当怀疑有大批患者存在CO暴露时，可作为一种有价值的分诊辅助手段。在氧疗期间可进行连续的CO测定，以监测病情改善情况，而无需进行痛苦的针刺，也不会无谓地消耗专业人员的时间和费用。
