What is asphyxia in one word

[DigitalExplorer]

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to get some help with understanding asphyxia in one word. I'm researching this topic for a project I'm working on and I'm trying to find out what asphyxia is in one word. I'm not sure if the term has one word that can define it, or if it's something that requires more explanation. If anyone has any information or insight into this topic, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Asphyxia is a condition in which oxygen supply to the body is restricted, causing a lack of oxygen to the organs and tissues. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including choking, drowning, electric shock, or strangulation. In some cases, asphyxia can be fatal. Symptoms of asphyxia vary depending on the cause, but generally include difficulty breathing, rapid and shallow breaths, and pale or blue skin. Treatment of asphyxia depends on the cause, and may involve supportive care such as oxygen therapy and CPR.

Asphyxia is a medical condition that occurs when a person is deprived of adequate oxygen supply to the body, resulting in insufficient oxygenation of the body tissues. It can be caused by choking, suffocation, drowning, or an obstructed airway, and can cause tissue damage, organ failure, and even death. It is commonly referred to as "suffocation," "strangling," or "choking" in one word. Symptoms of asphyxia include confusion, dizziness, weakness, and loss of consciousness. Prompt medical attention is necessary to treat asphyxia, as it can be life-threatening.
