   Carbon monoxide also binds to the hemeprotein myoglobin. It has a high affinity for myoglobin, about 60 times greater than that of oxygen. [21] Carbon monoxide bound to myoglobin may impair its ability to utilize oxygen. [49] This causes reduced cardiac output and hypotension, which may result in brain ischemia. [21]
