What Does Carbon Monoxide Breath Monitor Mean?
A carbon monoxide breath monitor is a device used to measure the amount of carbon monoxide in a person's breath for the purposes of smoking cessation, or to detect carbon monoxide poisoning. The monitors are used by emergency services personnel to identify patients who are suspected of having carbon monoxide poisoning. Due to the fact the carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless and tasteless, poisoning is difficult to detect without a carbon monoxide breath monitor.
