About Carbon Monoxide, Blood Test in Perris
Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin with an affinity far greater than oxygen, forming carboxyhemoglobin and reducing oxygen delivery to tissues.
The test reports the percentage of hemoglobin occupied by carbon monoxide, often called carboxyhemoglobin or COHb. Elevated levels can reflect recent exposure to sources such as tobacco smoke, faulty combustion appliances, vehicle exhaust, or certain industrial processes.
Because carbon monoxide has no detectable odor or color, symptoms such as headache, dizziness, nausea, and confusion may be mistaken for other conditions. Blood measurement provides an objective assessment of exposure and helps guide clinical decisions.
Results are interpreted alongside the patient's history, symptoms, and timing of exposure. Levels can decline over time after exposure ends, so the interval between exposure and sample collection is relevant to interpretation.
