what's happend if some air goes inside of blood by injection?

Answer 1

In order for it to do any damage, the air bubble would have to be very large and injected into a vein close to the heart. Air bubbles that are small in size or injected lower in the body will have dissipated by the time it reaches the heart.

Answer 2

This is an actual artical of what happens when air is injected into the blood stream.

Six week old baby dies after air was injected into its blood stream!!

Air mistakenly injected into the baby's blood steam by the hospital!!!
A six-week-old baby boy died at a hospital after air was mistakenly injected into his bloodstream during a routine stomach operation, the inquest now revealed. The jury said that there was equipment available to prevent the mistaken error, but it was not used, and is still no been ''widely'' used now. NHS Trust said it "wholeheartedly supports" work to ensure the mistake cannot happen again. During the inquest they were also told that if there wasnt a change in the equipment then there is going to be more deaths.
The consultant anaesthetist, who had made the error, was cleared by the court jury of manslaughter through gross negligence in 2004. He told the inquest the moment he realised he had injected air into the tube in the baby's hand he was "absolutely devastated". At the end of the surgery the same consultant was asked to inject air through Aaron's nasal tube into his stomach to check if the procedure had been a success, but he pumped the air into the wrong tube. The baby suffered a cardiac arrest.

Answer 3

If you've injected a significant amount of air, around 10mL that is you'd get an life threatening condition of Air Embolism complicating to shock or death. Signs and symptoms include high heart rate, low blood pressure, difficulty and pain in breathing, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of the skin due to lack of oxygen) and altered levels of consciousness. If suspected to have such, quickly lie down on our left side with the head of the bed lowered (Tendelenburg's position as we call it) to trap the air in the right atrium of the heart and therefore not go the lungs where it usually does its damage.

Answer 4

Nothing if only some air goes. Accidental injection of large quantities can cause air embolism and may lead to death.

Answer 5

Nothing if only some air goes. Accidental injection of large quantities can cause air embolism and may lead to death.

Answer 6

Andrea is not exactly right, small air bubbles get caught in IV lines [very small!]. It can cause an air embolism which will go to your heart & kill you, but you need about 20mLs. People kill other people in movies all of the time with a syringe filled with air. It's very effective.

Answer 7

death.... this air bubble goes into the heart, and you die... so even air pressure hoses, are dangerous. Like the ones you put air in the tires of your car with. You you have a cut, and get a shot of air into it, same thing happens.
But I have seen very small amounts of air bubbles go in, through an intraveinous in the hospital and it was ok. But the main rule of thumb is death.

Answer 8

Nothing unless it is a huge amount of it. In hospitals they put an IV in and you see air bubbles in the line, no need to worry your blood stream already has "air" in it.
