Clinical study reports variable neurological manifestations in pediatric carbon monoxide poisoning, suggesting combined hyperbaric oxygen and corticosteroid therapy may reduce brain damage.
Conclusion: Acute CO intoxication is an important health problem in our country, especially in winter, because of poorly functioning heating systems.The clinical spectrum including neurological findings varies during childhood.We suggest that HBO therapy could be used safely in children.We believe that the combined administration of pulse methylprednisolone and HBO treatment might reduce cerebral damage caused by CO poisoning in selected pediatric patients.
