Le terme d'«asphyxie» était employé communément pour désigner l'état d'une personne dont la ventilation est arrêtée. Actuellement, il englobe toutes les détresses respiratoires, c.-à-d. tous les états d'un sujet chez lequel l'oxygène n'arrive pas en quantité normale au niveau des tissus. Il peut s'agir : - d'un arrêt ventilatoire ou circulatoire; - d'une atteinte de l'appareil ventilatoire, soit par une obstruction des voies aériennes supérieures (langue, oedème laryngé, corps étranger, sang, vomissements, mucosités, etc.) ou inférieures (noyade, pneumonie, insuffisance respiratoire chronique), soit par des lésions de la cage thoracique [...]; - d'une atteinte de l'appareil circulatoire par un état de choc [...]; d'une atteinte neurologique [...]; - d'une respiration en atmosphère confinée ou de l'inhalation d'un gaz toxique. 3, record 5, French, - asphyxie

Asphyxiation phase. In this half hour period, two thirds of victims will die from asphyxiation. Apart from wet snow avalanches the snow encasing victims contains a significant amount of oxygen and is permeable. If a victim has protected or can clear airways and can breath (that is the weight of snow is not compressing the lungs or thorax) they can usually breath. During this period the surrounding air will either be exhausted or the victims respiration will condense and freeze slowly rendering the surrounding snow impermeable. 1, record 8, English, - asphyxiation%20phase
