Özet

To describe predictors for severe carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning in children due to coal stove. Patients (n=176) were divided into two groups retrospectively: severe and mild-moderate clinical presentation. Forty-two patients received hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. No patient died. pH<7.30 (p=0.030; OR:1.0211), carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) (p=0.002; OR:1.0558), and mean platelet volume (MPV) (p=0.004; OR:1.4695) were significantly different between the groups. COHb>20%, (AUC: 0.691) was comparable to those for pH (AUC: 0.536) and MPV (AUC: 0.639) (p>0.05) in ROC analysis. Although COHb, pH and MPV were poor predictors for severe manifestations, performance of MPV was similar to the COHb and pH levels.
