Abstract: The objective of the study is to explore the etiology, clinical manifestations, imaging features, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cerebral air embolism complicated computed tomography (CT) scan-guided percutaneous liver biopsy. A case of air embolism...
Cerebral Air Embolism
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Cerebral Air Embolism.
A Rare Case of Cerebral Air Embolism Caused by Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation After Removal of a Central Venous Catheter.
Abstract: Cerebral air embolism following central venous catheter (CVC) removal is extremely rare. We report a case of cerebral air embolism with loss of consciousness after removal of CVC caused by pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM). Computed tomography...
Cerebral air embolism from a Central Venous Catheter: A timely reminder of the importance of rapid diagnosis.
Abstract: Cerebral air embolism (CAE) is a rare, avoidable and potentially fatal iatrogenic complication. Here, we report a case of CAE associated with a central venous catheter in the internal jugular vein that resulted in neurological deficits and generalised...
Early hyperbaric oxygen therapy for cerebral air embolism during atrial fibrillation ablation.
Abstract: Cerebral air embolism is a potentially life-threatening complication of left-sided ablation procedures. We present a 51-year-old woman with cerebral air embolism during atrial fibrillation cryoballoon ablation. Taking a deep breath while removing the...
Implementation of Targeted Temperature Management in a Patient with Cerebral Arterial Gas Embolism.
Abstract: Cerebral arterial gas embolism (CAGE) shows various manifestations according to the quantity of gas and the brain areas affected. The symptoms range from minor motor weakness, headache, and confusion to disorientation, convulsions, hemiparesis,...
Cerebral air embolism resulting from invasive medical procedures. Treatment with hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: The introduction of air into the venous or arterial circulation can cause cerebral air embolism, leading to severe neurological deficit or death. Air injected into the arterial circulation may have direct access to the cerebral circulation. A patent foramen...
