mmh..nothing happens if air enter in small quantity as our blood veins have some space with air(very very less)..

but if too much air could result in inefficiency in pumping the blood to the brain and you would start fainting immediately if the blood didnt serve brain with enough O2. remember 90% of oxygen we inhale is used by brain.

so the immediate effect would be fainting..

next > there is no way you can get air inside the viens untill you pump it inside..remem air is lighter and stays on top whereas your blood in the bottle comes down(not pumped) due to its "hydraulic head"..

if you still pump air..the blood inside the vien will clot and prevent anymore air getting inside..

Air can not enter this way. The IV fluid bottle is kept at a height to overcome the BP. Since specific gravity of IV fluid is high enough the column pressure overcomes the BP. However, after the fluid is finished the air in the tube will have only atmospheric pressure and BP is higher than this hence air can not enter blood stream. If the air is pumped under pressure into blood stream it will be harmful depending on the quantity of air.

There is an immediate effect if the air bubble is big enough to be trapped in the vessels. Its called AIR EMBOLISM. Its basically the physical hindrance of the flow of blood through the vessels. If it gets to the brain, you will have a stroke, it gets to the heart , you'll get a heart attack. It acts just like a blood clot. It is very dangerous and can cause death.

Air can get into the bloodstream usually when you inject medication via IV. Air usually is introduced when the IV injection is not prepared properly that air bubbles are still present.

If the air is in small bubbles, then the blood will try to eradicate it. If the air bubble is too big, then there is a danger of blocking the veins and the flow of blood, especially if it goes into the heart. But generally, the body will cope up with the situation by trying to eliminate the air inside the veins or arteries.

Minimum air that should enter inside human body at a point of time to cause damage is 5 ml.This is quite huge quantity.The air is hardly 1-2ml when enters through a hole.So most of times nothing would happen.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

you will die because the air will enter into veins and create a space there.that is why an injection with air alone is injected to a person a person will die

In the third answer,i.e.,in Nancy's answer,I dont think it is 90% of O2 that is used by the brain.pls conform again.
