Based on medical examiner reports and state vital records, 1978-84, nonvehicular carbon monoxide (CO) caused 62 unintended deaths, representing 42 percent of all unintended fatal CO poisonings in West Virginia. Sources were almost always heating or cooking appliances associated with incomplete combustion of fuels (methane, butane, or propane) not commonly recognized for their potential to produce CO. Hazards included failure to provide recommended venting, neglected maintenance, or use in small areas without natural ventilation.
根据1978 - 1984年法医报告和州生命记录,非车辆一氧化碳(CO)导致62例意外死亡,占西弗吉尼亚州所有意外致命一氧化碳中毒事件的42%。中毒源几乎总是与燃料(甲烷、丁烷或丙烷)不完全燃烧相关的取暖或烹饪器具,这些器具通常未被认为有产生一氧化碳的潜在风险。危险包括未提供建议的通风设施、维护不善或在没有自然通风的小区域使用。
