Brain hypoxia

Brain hypoxia is a condition where the brain does not receive enough oxygen. This shortage can impair brain function, affecting thinking, memory, and motor skills. Common causes include choking, drowning, asphyxiation, and certain medical conditions. Symptoms can range from confusion and drowsiness to loss of consciousness. If not addressed quickly, severe hypoxia can lead to brain damage or even death. It’s important to seek immediate medical attention if someone is suspected to be experiencing oxygen deprivation to the brain.
