Beware of delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning

People always think that carbon monoxide poisoning occurs mostly in winter and relax their vigilance. In fact, factors such as low air pressure, high humidity, thick temperature inversion layer, and uncertain wind direction in spring can easily lead to poor smoke discharge (inverted smoke), leading to carbon monoxide poisoning, and even more serious cases, turning into delayed encephalopathy. Recently, when Mo was 32 years old, taking a bath at home, he suddenly fainted to the ground, became unconscious, and couldn't respond. After diagnosis by a neurologist, it is considered as carbon monoxide toxic encephalopathy.

Carbon monoxide toxic encephalopathy refers to the sudden onset of brain dysfunction characterized by dementia, psychosis, and extrapyramidal symptoms in some patients with carbon monoxide poisoning after a period of false recovery after the recovery of consciousness disorders in the acute phase. It usually occurs within two months after acute poisoning.

So we can't be careless. Don't think carbon monoxide poisoning is no big deal. It's a real hidden killer that threatens our lives. In order to eliminate the harm caused by carbon monoxide, we should always be vigilant and prevent the silent arrival of carbon monoxide in our lives. Of course, we ourselves cannot always pay attention to whether carbon monoxide is coming, but if stand alone carbon monoxide detectors are installed in homes, offices, or enclosed areas, we can indeed rest assured.
