Cerebral Hypoxia (Brain Hypoxia)
Cerebral Hypoxia (Brain Hypoxia) develops when our brain receives less oxygen than required to sustain its metabolic requirements. Among all cells in our body, the brain cells are most sensitive to the oxygen deprivation. Five minutes without oxygen is enough for the brain cell to start dying. Cerebral Hypoxia that lasts for that or longer time can cause seizures, coma or even brain death.
