Answer:
What causes brain hypoxia?
There are many medical conditions and events that interrupt the flow of oxygen to your brain. Stroke, cardiac arrest, and an irregular heartbeat can prevent oxygen and nutrients from traveling to the brain.
Other possible causes of oxygen depletion include:
hypotension, which is extremely low blood pressure
anesthesia complications during surgery
choking
carbon monoxide poisoning
drowning
breathing in carbon monoxide or smoke
traveling to high altitudes (above 8,000 feet)
brain injury
strangulation
medical conditions that make it difficult to breathe, such as extreme asthma attacks
Asphyxia can be caused by injury to or obstruction of breathing passageways, as in strangulation or the aspiration of food (choking) or large quantities of fluid (near-drowning or drowning).
