Iatrogenic Arterial Gas Embolism From Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

The 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 ...

Cerebral Arterial Gas Embolism During Upper Endoscopy

A & A Case Reports, 2015
Arterial gas embolism can be caused by direct entry of gas into systemic arteries or indirectly by venous-to-arterial shunting. Although arterial gas embolism is rare, most documented cases are iatrogenic, resulting from the entry of gas during procedures that involve direct vascular cannulation or intracavitary air insufflation.

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.

Cerebral arterial gas embolism and neurogenic stunned myocardium in a previously healthy freediver.

Undersea & Hyperbaric Medicine, 2023
Cardiomyopathy is a known but rare sequelae of diving-related cerebral arterial gas embolism (CAGE). In previously reported cases, patient findings have been consistent with takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) per the revised Mayo Clinic's diagnostic criteria.

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.

Arterial gas embolism and hemoconcentration

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1994
The charts of all patients with diving-related accidents presenting between 1983 and 1991 were reviewed. Individuals who sustained a neurologic deficit attributable to occlusion of part of the cerebral circulation within 10 minutes of surfacing from a dive and who had a depth time profile less than 80% of the U.S.

Application of a new hyperbaric oxygen therapy protocol in patients with arterial and venous gas embolism due to hydrogen peroxide poisoning.

Undersea & Hyperbaric Medicine, 2021
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) ingestion can cause vascular gas embolism (GE). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) is known to improve neurological abnormalities in patients with arterial gas embolism (AGE). Previously, HBO2 based on the U.S.
