What's the difference between asphyxiation and asphyxy?

Asphyxiation


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of causing asphyxia; a state of asphyxia.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) We document four patients, including two sibs, with asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy and mild congenital hydrocephalus.
  • (2) Three cases of asphyxial deaths as a result of aspiration of dental appliances are presented.
  • (3) The cries were the pain cries of 2 normal newborns, 1 infant with maladie du cri du chat, 1 with Down syndrome, 1 asphyxiated infant with brain damage, and one asphyxiated infant without brain damage.
  • (4) Fluosol injected 30 min-2 days before irradiation did not alter the radiation response of tumors in air-breathing or N2-asphyxiated mice.
  • (5) However, at the highest frequencies used, the phase relation between the PCO2 and PO2 components of the response could lead to the summed asphyxial response being less than its individual components.
  • (6) Localization of brain injury to parasagittal arterial border zones in the asphyxiated term neonate has been recently described as a frequent, clinically significant finding.
  • (7) And as Crow demonstrated, militancy may not guarantee success – but passivity will asphyxiate unions when the workforce needs them to be stronger than ever.
  • (8) In the first case the asphyxial after term infant died of pulmonary seventeen hours after birth; in the second case of the foetus had died in the uterus.
  • (9) Twenty five asphyxiated newborns (seventeen term and eight preterm) with mean gestational age of 37 weeks (range 28-48 weeks) and mean birth weight of 2.4 kg (range 0.75 kg to 3.5 kg), respectively, constituted the cases in present study.
  • (10) The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation with interposed abdominal compression for restoration of spontaneous circulation in an asphyxial and fibrillatory arrest model.
  • (11) In those children with thoracic asphyxiant dystrophy, a genetically determined disorder, who survive infancy, the development of renal disease may be life-threatening.
  • (12) It is speculated that the changes in the cerebral circulation in asphyxiated infants are at least partly caused by cerebral oedema-induced increase of intracranial pressure due to severe perinatal asphyxia.
  • (13) The authors discuss the possible ways of managing the asphyxiated infant by considering the respiratory circumstances of the fetus and newborn.
  • (14) These infants also showed evidence of intrauterine malnutrition, but did not have any greater asphyxiation than the negative OCT group.
  • (15) Forty-two newborns were classified as asphyxiated by either of two methods: 1) Infants from whom umbilical cord hypoxanthine levels were taken were classified as asphyxiated if they had an Apgar score of 6 or less at 1 or 5 minutes, fetal heart rate below 100 beats per minute, or meconium-stained amniotic fluid; and 2) infants from whom peripheral arterial hypoxanthine samples were taken were classified by clinical assessment, whereby one author, blinded to the infants' hypoxanthine levels, prospectively assessed each patient's condition for evidence of asphyxia.
  • (16) It is likely that prenatal factors are responsible for the alteration of early development in the neural function of non-asphyxiated SGA infants.
  • (17) There was 60% mortality in asphyxiated babies with deranged liver function.
  • (18) There was no evidence of emesis during the experiments or of overt changes in the appearance of the oral cavity, heart, liver, spleen, kidney, proventriculus, gizzard, and intestines of a random sample of birds killed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation and necropsied.
  • (19) Hydrogen sulfide is an irritant and chemical asphyxiant gas that exerts its primary toxic effects on the respiratory and neurological systems.
  • (20) The other procedures belong to standard managment in handling an asphyxiated fetus.

Asphyxy


Definition:

  • (n.) Apparent death, or suspended animation; the condition which results from interruption of respiration, as in suffocation or drowning, or the inhalation of irrespirable gases.
