Carbon monoxide poisoning treatment with hyperbaric oxygen and steroids
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding a steroid medication to standard hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves recovery for adults hospitalized with carbon monoxide poisoning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are admitted to Nebraska Medicine hospital.
- You are not on a breathing machine (ventilator).
- You are not admitted to the Critical Care Medicine Service.

This trial tests if combining two common medicines, dexamethasone and N-acetylcysteine, can help prevent long-term brain problems in people who have been poisoned by carbon monoxide.
This trial studies nerve and brain problems that can happen after acute carbon monoxide poisoning. It looks at people who arrive soon after poisoning to better understand what happens and how to help.
This trial studies certain tiny particles in the blood in adults with acute carbon monoxide poisoning. It may help researchers understand what happens in the body and how well hyperbaric oxygen treatment works.
This trial looks at how carbon monoxide poisoning affects the heart in patients who received hyperbaric oxygen therapy. It aims to understand the heart risks after treatment.
This study looks at people who have been sickened by carbon monoxide (CO) from an accident or exposure. It aims to better understand what happens over time, which could help improve care and outcomes in the future.
This trial looks at a fast blood test (capillary HbCO) to measure carbon monoxide poisoning in people coming to the ER with possible CO symptoms. It could help doctors diagnose and treat CO poisoning quicker.
