Resumo: Carbon monoxide and cyanide are toxins that induce cellular hypoxia; both can be produced in the context of domestic fires and may have a synergistic effect. We present the case of a man, victim of a house fire, who was initially diagnosed as having carbon monoxide poisoning, but that afterwards also presented signs and symptoms compatible with cyanide poisoning. He was successfully treated with an antidote. We want to highlight this relatively frequent association of poisonings and the need for urgent empirical treatment.

Apresentamos o caso de um homem, vítima de incêndio doméstico, que foi inicialmente diagnosticado como intoxicação por monóxido de carbono, mas que posteriormente apresentou também sinais e sintomas compatíveis com intoxicação por cianeto, tendo sido tratado com sucesso com antídotos dirigidos. Pretendemos alertar para esta associação de intoxicações relativamente frequente e para a necessidade de tratamento empírico urgente.Ordem dos Médicos2020-02-03info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfimage/jpegapplication/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.documentapplication/pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/11386Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 33 No. 2 (2020): February; 147-148Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 33 N.º 2 (2020): Fevereiro; 147-1481646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPengporhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386/5865https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386/10816https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386/10817https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386/11192https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/11386/11215Direitos de Autor (c) 2020 Acta Médica Portuguesainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarçal, Ana LuísaCoelho, DanielaAraújo, Rui2022-12-20T11:06:14Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/11386Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:20:02.022497Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
