Biochemical, cardiac, and neuroimaging correlates of pediatric carbon monoxide poisoning: a single-source mass exposure study

Aims: To evaluate the association between fractional carboxyhemoglobin (FCOHb) levels and biochemical markers of poisoning severity, and to describe cardiac and neuroimaging findings in a pediatric cohort affected by a single-source mass carbon monoxide (CO) exposure.Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study included pediatric patients exposed during a single-source mass CO exposure event. Of 64 screened patients, 6 were excluded from inferential analyses because their initial FCOHb levels were
