Absence or low individual and public risk
Toxic effect: carbon dioxide - what does this mean
Carbon dioxide toxicity occurs when the body is exposed to an excessive amount of carbon dioxide, leading to an increase in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream. this can lead to a range of symptoms including headaches, dizziness, confusion, nausea, and respiratory distress. long-term exposure to high levels of carbon dioxide can lead to more serious health issues such as coma, seizures, and even death.
What happens during the disease - toxic effect: carbon dioxide
Toxic effects of carbon dioxide are caused by its accumulation in the bloodstream, leading to a decrease in ph and a decrease in oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. carbon dioxide also causes vasodilation of the small vessels, leading to decreased perfusion of the tissues and decreased oxygen delivery. this can lead to tissue hypoxia, leading to a variety of symptoms, including headache, confusion, and respiratory distress.
