what is carboxyhemoglobin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) is a stable complex of carbon monoxide that forms in red blood cells when carbon monoxide is inhaled. COHb should be measured if carbon monoxide or methylene chloride poisoning is suspected. COHb is also useful in monitoring the treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Its a Heamoglobin that has carbon monoxide instead of the normal oxygen bound to it. Carbon monoxide has a much stronger binding to haemoglobin than oxygen. Carboxyhaemoglobin is formed in carbon monoxide poisoning and leads to oxygen deficiency in the body..
