Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1994
Four patients showing classic physical stigmata of traumatic asphyxia were studied. Cervicofacial cyanosis and edema, subconjunctival hemorrhage, and multiple ecchymotic hemorrhage of the face, neck, and upper part of the chest were documented. Admission Glasgow coma scale scores ranged from 8 to 15. All but one had no associated injury.

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1991
During a 5-year period, we treated 14 cases of traumatic asphyxia. There were 12 male and 2 female patients ranging in age from 2 to 32 years. Most suffered crushing injuries at work or were run over by motor vehicles. Mild to severe cervicofacial cyanosis and petechiae developed in all patients.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1990
Traumatic asphyxia is a distinctive clinical syndrome characterized by cervicofacial cyanosis and edema, multiple petechiae, and subconjunctival hemorrhage after a severe crush injury of the thorax or of the upper part of the abdomen. A case of traumatic asphyxia is reported, and its clinical and pathophysiologic features are discussed.

Homicides due to asphyxia are relatively uncommon. To better understand the presentation of such cases, the files of the Bexar County Medical Examiner's Office were reviewed from January 1, 1985, through December 31, 1998, for all such homicides. A total of 133 cases were found.

The term Birth asphyxia covers a number of clinical and physiological definitions. Birth asphyxia is a relatively common clinical event. In the majority of cases the outcome in terms of brain damage and future development of the child is excellent. However, a small number of children go on to develop patterns of brain damage which are then associated ...

Indicators of perinatal asphyxia
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1987Creatinine phosphokinase and its isoenzymes (myocardial-specific MB and brain-specific BB) are elevated in the presence of specific tissue injury. The value of this serum marker as an objective indicator of perinatal asphyxia was studied. Forty-nine patients with gestational ages ranging from 36 to 42 weeks were prospectively studied.

Bailliere's clinical obstetrics and gynaecology, 1996
The prevention of fetal asphyxia or hypoxia starts with prepregnancy counseling and continues with careful antenatal care and intrapartum fetal surveillance. Further progress in eliminating antepartum and intrapartum deaths will only be made when it is accepted that, even with intense investigation by detailed autopsy, the cause of many deaths remains ...
