A patient who was exposed to carbon monoxide poisoning tells the nurse, I can't remember what happened. Nurse initial should provide O2 by mask.

When carbon monoxide and hgb mix, carbon monoxide poisoning results. Tissue anoxia arises when carbon monoxide binds more quickly than O2. To shorten the half-life of carboxyhemoglobin, the nurse should administer 100% O2 through mask.

The toxin replaces the oxygen in your system when you breathe in carbon monoxide. Your body will run out of oxygen, including your heart, brain, and body. Therefore, the nurse should start by giving oxygen.
