Failed suicide attempt by emission gas poisoning
P Hays and RA Bornstein
After prolonged exposure to emission gases from his car, a patient
survived, probably because of low carbon monoxide levels in the emission
gases of his modern car. The authors anticipate a reduction in fatalities
when this method of suicide is used.
