How long can the brain survive from lack of oxygen?

Immediate medical intervention is crucial to restore oxygen supply and prevent long-term consequences.

The hypothalamus regulates body temperature maintaining a perfect environment for the brain to survive. The brain also requires oxygen and glucose to survive and therefore a lack of oxygen caused by a decrease in either red blood cells to distribute the oxygen or a reduce intake of oxygen in the lungs for any reason whether disease or injury. A decrease or excessive increase in glucose will also cause damage to the brain as this, along with oxygen, is considered essential brain 'food'.
Can eyes roll to back of head because of lack of oxygen?
Yes, lack of oxygen can cause a condition called hypoxia, which can lead to symptoms such as rolling the eyes back. In severe cases of hypoxia, the brain can be deprived of oxygen, resulting in various neurological symptoms, including eye movements. It is essential to seek medical help immediately in such situations.
How does lack of oxygen to the brain cause seizures?
When the brain is deprived of oxygen, it cannot function properly, leading to an imbalance in the electrical activity of the brain. This can trigger abnormal neuronal firing, resulting in seizures. Seizures are a sign of brain dysfunction and can occur as a response to the stress caused by lack of oxygen.
