PY - 2019 T2 - Goldfrank's Toxicologic Emergencies, 11e AB - Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is used therapeutically in poisoning by carbon monoxide (CO) (alone or if complicated by cyanide {CN} poisoning), methylene chloride, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). It is also a recognized therapy for air or gas embolism, such as may arise from ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and for anemia, a functional form of which arises from oxidants that induce methemoglobinemia.
