North Carolina Acute exposure to carbon monoxide has the potential to impair exercise capacity in patients with isdlemic heart disease. The effect of sufficient inhalation of this compound to gradually produce a level of 6% carboxyhemoglobin was studied in 30 nonsmoking patients with obstructive coronary artery disease and evidence of exerelsednduced iseb. ends. After an initial training session, subjects were exposed to air or carbon monoxide on successive days in a randomized double-blind crossover fashion. Cardiac function and exercise capacity were assessed during symptomlimited supine radionuclide ventrknlography. On the earbon monoxide day, mean postexposure carboxyhemoglobin was 5 .9 ± 0.1% compared with 1 .6 ± 0.1% (p < 0.01) after air exposure.
