Case 1. An 18-year-old male patient, who complained of syncope, was brought to the emergency department by ambulance and admitted. The patient, who had a normal medical history, had not experienced syncope previously. He was not a smoker. For three hours, he sat with his friends in a cafe, where people smoked a water pipe, but he did not. He stated that he had a headache and felt dizzy after he left the cafe, and he could not remember what happened afterwards. People who witnessed the incident stated that he had fainted for approximately 4 to 5 minutes, but he had not displayed spasms or symptoms of an epileptic seizure. His vital measurements were normal at admission, and his Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score was 15. He was

Background and Objectives: Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning is a leading cause of injury and death due to poisoning in many parts of the world. Among numerous sources of CO, the gas water heater can be a potential under looked source causing an accidental Carbon monoxide poisoning. In the perspective of Kathmandu valley, where there are houses with small bathrooms, inadequate ventilation and absent CO detectors, gas water heaters can be extremely dangerous even if it liberates small amount of CO gas. Herein, we present a case of CO poisoning to increase awareness about the gas water heater use and the possible risk of CO poisoning in our community.Presentation of Case: A 34 years old healthy female from Patan, presented with the history of loss of consciousness for 15 minute while taking bath on a gas water heater. There was no spontaneous respiration, no cardiac activity and her body temperature was below normal.Discussion: CO is toxic to all aerobic forms to life. CO binds to hemoglobin 230 times faster than oxygen causing cellular hypoxic damage and death. CO poisoning is not uncommon in our society and many such cases are misdiagnosed for some other illness.Conclusion: Use of the gas water heaters and likelihood of CO poisoning should be notified as a public concern. People need to be aware of these hazards to prevent fatal events and likely death due to exploitation of gas water heaters. Janaki Medical College Journal of Medical Sciences (2017) Vol. 5(2): 56-59

“…Therefore, monitoring environmental characteristics and providing a reliable accurate and low-level detection limit of pollutant gas in the environment are of great importance for the modern society [1,2]. Among all the pollutants, carbon monoxide (CO) is a more hazardous gas in the atmosphere and is to be monitored [3]. Carbon monoxide is a common industrial hazard resulting from the incomplete burning of natural gas and any other material containing carbon such as gasoline, kerosene, oil, propane, coal, or wood and coke ovens.…”

“…Carbon monoxide is a common industrial hazard resulting from the incomplete burning of natural gas and any other material containing carbon such as gasoline, kerosene, oil, propane, coal, or wood and coke ovens. When the concentration of carbon monoxide increases in the atmosphere, it becomes dangerous for the human body and other life forms [2][3][4][5]. Some research groups have investigated the detection and adsorption of CO gas with various methods [6][7][8][9].…”

The aim of this work is to study the structural, electrical, NMR, NBO and quantum parameters of the adsorption of CO molecule on pristine, As, B and BAs doped (4, 4) armchair aluminum nitride nanotubes (AlNNTs). The considerable changes in the adsorption energies, gap energies, global hardness, NBO, and NMR parameters show the high sensitivity and significant change of the electronic properties of AlNNTs to doping of As, B, BAs atoms and CO molecule adsorption. The results reveal that the As, B, and BAs atoms replaced in AlNNTs are good candidates for CO adsorption and increase the adsorption of CO molecule on the surface of nanotube. The gap energy of all adsorption models is in the range of 3.51-4.45 eV. The analysis of NMR parameters indicate that the CSI values of Al and N sites around the adsorption position of the AIV model decrease significantly from the original values, while they increase significantly from the original values for the AII and BII models. The NBO charge values of CO molecule in the AIV model are negative while they are positive for the other models. The positive values of NBO charge prove that CO molecule is an electron acceptor and decrease charge density around nanotube surface.
