Narcosis and Asphyxiation in Some Species and Mutants of Drosophila
This paper is concerned with (1) the relationship between narcosis and asphyxiation, (2) the physiological analysis of the insect organism, (3) the influence on recovery from narcosis or asphyxiation of age, pH of food, etc., and (4) the differences in narcosis in Drosophila species, subspecies and mutants. (1) Different physiological schools seek to explain the effects of narcosis in various w...
متن کاملSuicide by asphyxiation due to helium inhalation.
Suicide by asphyxiation using helium is the most widely-promoted method of "self-deliverance" by right-to-die advocates. However, little is known about persons committing such suicides or the circumstances and manner in which they are completed. Prior reports of suicides by asphyxiation involving helium were reviewed and deaths determined by the North Carolina Office of the Chief Medical Examin...
متن کاملTwo cases of suicide by asphyxiation due to helium and argon.
Numerous death cases due to suffocation in a toxic or oxygen deficient gas atmosphere have been described in the literature, but unfortunately especially cases involving inert gases like helium are often presented without detailed toxicological findings. Observations on two suicides are reported, one by helium and the other by argon inhalation. During autopsies gas samples from the lungs were c...
متن کاملCarbon dioxide narcosis due to inappropriate oxygen delivery: a case report
BACKGROUND Oxygen delivery to patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may be challenging because of their potential hypoxic ventilatory drive. However, some oxygen delivery systems such as non-rebreathing face masks with an oxygen reservoir bag require high oxygen flow for adequate oxygenation and to avoid carbon dioxide rebreathing. CASE PRESENTATION A 72-year-old Caucasian man w...
متن کاملMethylene Blue Is Effective to Reverse Refractory Hemodynamic Instability due to Dimethoate Poisoning
Background:Organophosphates are commercially available agrochemicals for pest control, but may be abused for deliberate self-poisoning. We report a case of suicidal ingestion of dimethoate, a moderately toxic organophosphate insecticide, which can cause refractory hemodynamic instability, and the successful use of methylene blue (MB) for counteracting this complication. Case Presentation: An u...
