Abstract
Nargile son 400 yılda
özellikle yaşlılar tarafından, 1980’lerden sonra da gençler tarafından yaygın olarak
kullanılmıştır. Nargile içicilerinde karbonmonoksit (CO) intoksikasyonu nadir
izlenir. Bu sunumda, 21 ve 20 yaşlarında olan ve nargile içimi sonrasında CO intoksikasyonu
sonucu bayılma ile gelen iki kadın hasta irdelenmiştir. Acil servise baygın
halde getirilen hastaların karboksihemoglobin seviyeleri sırasıyla 26.5 ve 21,4
olarak ölçülmüştür. Nargile kullanımı son yıllarda, özellikle genç popülasyonda
artmıştır. Bu artışa bağlı olarak, halsizlik, yorgunluk, bayılma gibi nonspesifik
şikayetler ile CO intoksikasyonu oranı da artmaktadır. Acil servise başvuran
nonspesifik şikayetleri olan özellikle genç hastalarda nargile
kullanımı/maruziyeti derinlemesine sorgulanmalı ve bu konuda uyanık
olunmalıdır.

Abstract
Narghile
has been used commonly by the elderly in the last 400 years and also by younger
population since 1980’s. Carbonmonoxide poisoning in narghile smokers is very
rare. In this presentation, two female patients aged 20 and 21 years old and
who have exhibited carbonmonoxide poisoning after narghile smoking were
evaluated. They were presented to the emergency department due to syncope and their
carboxyhemoglobin levels were measured as 26.5 and 21.4, respectively. Narghile
smoking has become very popular especially in the young population in recent
years. Carbonmonoxide poisoning rates with nonspecific symptoms like lassitude,
fatigue and fainting has also increased together with this increase. Narghile
use/exposure should be questioned carefully especially in young patients
admitted to the emergency department with nonspecific symptoms.
