This can be a tricky diagnosis unless you pull someone out of a building with CO alarm going off or a fire fighter treated during rehab.

CO poisoning can imitate many other illnesses and the paramedic must use good patient assessment, history taking and clinical judgement when considering this potential poisoning. CO Oximeters now used in the field are a great tool to use by all EMS providers.
