How much air would need to be injected into vein to die?

Injecting air into the bloodstream can be fatal, but the amount required to cause death varies. As little as 20 milliliters of air can potentially lead to an air embolism, which can obstruct blood flow and result in serious complications or death. However, individual tolerance can vary based on several factors, including the person's health and the speed of injection. It's essential to avoid any form of injection that is not medically supervised.

What happens to the patient when air is administered during an injection of medication?

Injection of air into the bloodstream is a fairly common and benign occurrence. During I.V. infusion, direct administration of medications through an I.V. site, or flushing of catheters with saline, small air bubbles are often pushed into the bloodstream. Despite the common misconception of instant death, under most circumstances the body can simply absorb these bubbles with little or no difficulty or adverse effect. However, injection of more than a little air all at once can cause a pulmonary embolism, which is very serious indeed. (According to a nurse's forum post, Medline's estimate for the amount of air necessary to cause venous air embolism is 3-8cc/kg. see associated linkage)
