Carbon Monoxide Intoxication Leading to Crush Syndrome and Acute Renal Failure: A Case Report.

Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a common occurrence, typically resulting from exposure to CO emissions in enclosed spaces. CO is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. In this case report, we present a 52-year-old male patient who developed crush syndrome and acute kidney injury following carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication. The patient was found at home with loss of consciousness and seizures and was brought to the emergency department. A diagnosis of CO poisoning was made, and the patient was treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and supportive care. The clinical course, treatment outcomes, and comparison with the existing literature are detailed.
