Asphyxiation: Causes, Symptoms, Treatments and More

Conclusion

Asphyxiation is caused by lack of oxygen. It can quickly lead to loss of consciousness, brain injury, or death. Some causes of asphyxiation include drowning, asthma, and choking.

Asphyxiation is often caused by accidents. To prevent it, use caution and avoid leaving babies and small children alone.

If another person is experiencing asphyxia, call 911. Getting emergency assistance can help save someone’s life.
