Table 5b. Case definitions for case classification, by jurisdiction
State Classification
FL
Confirmed
case*
Definition
1) A case with signs and symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning and a
confirmed elevated COHb level (≥9%), as determined by either a blood
specimen (See laboratory criteria for diagnosis below) or pulse CO-oximetry or a
case with signs and symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning (in absence of
clinical laboratory data), with supplementary evidence in the form of
environmental monitoring data suggesting exposure from a specific poisoning
source.

Confirmed

2) A case with a reported blood specimen (in the absence of clinical and
environmental laboratory data) with COHb level that is equal to or greater than
a volume fraction of 0.12 (12%).
1. A case with signs and symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning and the
same environmental monitoring evidence of exposure with the same
environmental exposure as that of a confirmed case. (No laboratory and/or
environmental monitoring evidence of exposure present).
OR
2. A case with signs and symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning and
history of environmental monitoring evidence of exposure with smoke
inhalation secondary to conflagration (explosive fire). (No laboratory and/or
environmental monitoring evidence of exposure present).
OR
3. A case with a reported blood specimen of COHb level that is equal or greater
than a volume fraction of 0.09 (9%) and less than a volume fraction of 0.12
(12%),(9%≤ COHb ≤ 12%) in the absence of compatible symptoms or
environmental monitoring data.
A case with signs and symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning and a
history consistent with recent exposure to carbon monoxide.
T58 listed as underlying or contributing cause of death – or - COHb >=5.0% in
non-smokers - or - COHb >= 12.0% in smokers or when smoking status unknown
- or - Signs and/or symptoms consistent with CO poisoning accompanied by
evidence of an environmental exposure consistent with CO poisoning.
9.0%<= COHb <= 12.0% in smokers or when smoking status unknown – or –
Signs and/or symptoms consistent with acute CO poisoning and concurrent
environmental exposure as that of confirmed CO poisoning case – or -Loss of
consciousness or death without alternative explanation and exposure to source
of CO – or - Evidence of an environmental exposure consistent with CO
poisoning
COHb >= 12.0% as measured by pulse co-oximeter 1 or more non-specific
symptoms of CO poisoning and environmental monitoring consistent with CO in
the environment (e.g. CO detector) or documented exposure to a source of CO
*CoHb levels: unless there is a more plausible conflicting clinical explanation for
these results
1) A patient who was treated by a health care provider for health effects of
exposure to carbon monoxide, where the exposure was not intentional (i.e.
suicides with CO are excluded). Some evidence of an exposure source is
required (e.g., medical record noted CO alarm went off, malfunctioning furnace
fixed, patient was using gas powered equipment in enclosed space), but a
quantitative exposure of CO in air is not required.
2) A death where ICD10 code was T58 as underlying cause and “manner of
death” on the death certificate is not homicide or suicide.
1) A case meeting criteria for case finding using the case finding algorithm for
syndromic from EDs (see table 5a).
2) All cases with a laboratory report of a COHb level of 15% or higher.
3) All deaths with ICD-10 X47, Y17, T58 in the underlying or any contributing
cause field on death certificate, excluding intentional, fire-related, and
exposures to gases other than CO.
*Michigan, Florida and Missouri have a definition for a “confirmed” case, and do not classify cases using
the CSTE/CDC system of “confirmed”, “probable” and “suspect”. Final case counts do not include cases
classified as Suspect.
