Animal models of cerebral arterial gas embolism

Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2012
Cerebral arterial gas embolism is a dreaded complication of diving and invasive medical procedures. Many different animal models have been used in research on cerebral arterial gas embolism. This review provides an overview of the most important characteristics of these animal models.

Iatrogenic Arterial Gas Embolism From Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2019
Arterial gas embolus (AGE) is a rare complication of esophagoduodenoscopy (EGD) that has been described in only a few case reports in the literature. The exact etiology remains unknown, but many of the cases share some common characteristics.We report the case of a 52-year-old otherwise healthy man who underwent outpatient EGD for a sensation of ...

Abnormal serum biochemistries in association with arterial gas embolism

Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1997
Although diving-associated arterial gas emboli have been thought to embolize the cerebral circulation preferentially, more recent evidence suggests that gas bubbles disseminate widely and may cause dysfunction in multiple organ systems. We performed a retrospective survey of the records of patients presenting with diving-associated gas embolism over a ...

Venous and Arterial Gas Embolism Associated With Positive Pressure Ventilation

Chest, 1998
We report a 53-year-old woman with ARDS who required positive pressure ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure. She sustained an acute right ventricular myocardial infarction associated with cardiovascular instability. The next day she sustained a fatal cerebral arterial gas embolism.

Paradoxical cerebral arterial gas embolism: Computed tomography findings

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, 2007
SUMMARYComputed tomography scan findings are described in cerebral arterial gas embolism in two patients with right to left intracardiac shunts by accidental injection of air during intravenous therapy. Although imaging may not be necessary to diagnose the condition, the patient may be referred to CT scan as a case of stroke.

Arterial gas embolism in a breath-hold diver

Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine, 2023
An arterial gas embolism (AGE) is a potentially fatal complication of scuba diving that is related to insufficient exhalation during ascent. During breath-hold diving, an arterial gas embolism is unlikely because the volume of gas in the lungs generally cannot exceed the volume at the beginning of the dive.

Gas Embolism: Part II. Arterial Gas Embolism and Decompression Sickness

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 1996
Gas emboli syndromes are known to occur in many different settings, and they may result in life-threatening emergencies. Venous gas embolization was discussed previously in Part I of this review. Gas emboli that gain access to the arterial circulation or that result from exposures to decreased ambient pressures in the environment are discussed in Part ...
