An obstruction of the upper airway involves the blockage of the airway in the throat, trachea (airway going to the lungs) or the voice box.
Multiple things can cause upper airway obstruction, such as foreign objects (choking), swelling due to allergic reaction and chemical or heat burns which cause blistering/swelling.
Most of the time, people would first think of choking as causing an obstruction of the upper airway, even though there are a variety of causes.
blood, vomit, false teeth, bone, forien object, tongue drop
Anything that is big enough to block the airway. Food, and other items.
If they are unconcious, it can be vomit or even their own tongue.
If the tongue falls back into the throat, that can cause an obstruction.
Give back blows and abdominal thrusts to remove an obstruction from patients airway.
There are several different things that could cause an anatomical airway obstruction. Some of these things include foreign matter, allergic reactions, infections, abnormalities, and trauma.
it cause cardic arrest
acute hypoxia and tachycardia
"Cardic" is not an English word. Perhaps you mean "cardiac" which means relating to the heart. In which case an example could be: The surgeon knew he must act quickly when the patient went into cardiac arrest.
The most common cause of airway occlusion (airway obstruction) is choking on foreign objects. This means swallowing an obstructive object or having something lodged in your trachea causing the airway to lose its patency.
ummm like many of people like um....... Brittany Murphy died of cardic arrest at the age of 32.
The brain can only survive without oxygen for a very short amount of time. The priorities in an injured person are to remove the person from the area of danger, then to ensure an adequate airway, breathing and assess circulation. Airway is the most important because without an open airway and adequate breathing to promote oxygenation of blood, all other interventions will fail. In the setting of injury, especially if there is potential for head or neck injury, cervical spine stabilization should be maintained. This means that when opening the airway, you should not extend the neck. Instead a jaw lift should be performed and an airway adjunct may be needed to lift the tongue from the oropharynx to open the airway. Breathing may need to be assisted if there are no spontaneous ventilations. This can be done mouth-to-mouth or with an assistive device, such as a bag-valve-mask. ---- her tongue may fall backward and obstruct her airway ---- For the Air Force SABC: her tongue may fall backward and obstruct her airway
However, in procedures that involve the neck it is of particular concern because a rapidly enlarging hematoma can obstruct the airway.
Cardiac is concerning the heart.
One breath every 5 seconds
heart
Tachycardia is a rapid heart beat.
