title: [Poisoning with nitrosifying gas].
abstract: Nitrosifying gases are nitrogen-oxygen mixtures which are used in many branches of industry or which develop as a sideproduct. They are toxic already in a relatively slight concentration. It is reported on 12 patients who on account of an accident in a Berlin metal factory fell ill with an acute intoxication by nitrosifying gas. Symptoms, clinical and paraclinical findings are compiled and compared with the cases described in literature. Therapeutic orders are discussed.
