Description

Ke Liu and co-authors present a 2026 case report of a rare, fatal harm from oxygen therapy under pressure. A man aged twenty-seven was treated after carbon gas poisoning left him in a coma for ten hours. Soon after he left the chamber, he vomited, bled from the nose, and crashed fast.

Scans showed air where it should not be, in both sides of the chest, the belly, and brain vessels. The team names lung barotrauma, where trapped air tears lung tissue under pressure change. They list risk traits to screen out before treatment. The case warns how fast this rare event can turn deadly.
