Hypoxic damage can occur to most of the infant s organs heart , lung s, liver , Gut zoology gut , kidneys , but brain damage is of most concern and perhaps the least likely to quickly or completely heal. In the more pronounced cases, an infant will survive, but with damage to the brain manifested as either mental, such as developmental delay or intellectual disability , or physical, such as spasticity in fact, spastic diplegia and the other forms of cerebral palsy almost always feature asphyxiation during the birth process as a major, if not defining, factor. It results most commonly from a drop in maternal blood pressure or some other substantial interference with blood flow to the infant s brain during childbirth delivery . This can occur due to inadequate circulatory system circulation or perfusion , impaired respiratory effort, or inadequate Ventilation physiology ventilation .

Masturbation Autoerotic fatalities are death s that occur during sexual activity when an action, chemical, device or prop that is being employed to enhance physical or psychological stimulation causes the death. ref http www.dailymail.co.uk news article 2014571 Owner killer bear Sam Mazzola chained bed choking death sex toy.html ref These deaths may be accidental, natural or homicidal and occur in connection with consensual acts, criminal sexual assaults, or autoeroticism autoerotic acts . The term is often applied to only those deaths related to solitary sexual practices such as self bondage and autoerotic asphyxia . In some cases autoerotic fatalities are not initially recognized, and are confused with sexual homicide or suicide , but suicide by autoerotic means is extremely uncommon. Causes of autoerotic deaths included the use of chemicals such as amyl nitrite , Gamma Hydroxybutyric acid GHB , or nitrous oxide , and props and tools such as knives, oversized dildos, ligatures or bags for asphyxiation, duct tape, electrical apparatus for shocks, water for self immersion, fire making equipment for self immolation, or sharp, unhygienic or large fetishized objects. Male victims are much more likely to use a variety of devices during autoerotic behaviour than female victims. The most common causes of death in autoerotic fatalities are asphyxia by strangulation , suffocation, chemical or postural asphyxia postural asphyxia. These causes dominate autoerotic deaths to such an extent that other forms of autoerotic death are termed atypical. Atypical deaths are through causes such as electric shock electrocution , sepsis after bowel perforation , crushing, and accidental self impalement .

File 080211 409.JPG thumb Total enclosure zentai suit Total enclosure fetishism is a form of sexual fetishism whereby a person becomes aroused when having entire body enclosed in a certain way. Examples Some total enclosure activities include In Latex and PVC fetishism rubber fetishism , Latex clothing rubber suit s, gas mask s and similar garments and accessories are used for total enclosure. Vacuum bed Vacuum beds rigidly enclose the entire body under a rubber sheet with a small breathing tube. Sleepsack BDSM Sleepsack s and body bag s are also used as less rigid enclosure alternative to the vacuum beds, although some are made in inflatable form to increase pressure on the occupant s body. In spandex fetishism , zentai suits are used for total enclosure in skintight fabric from head to toe. In the case of zentai, the wearer breathes through the loose woven fabric itself, the garment is not as tight as a rubber or Polyvinyl chloride PVC garment would be, and the costume generally comes off with a zipper that can be operated by the wearer. Although experiences of these activities are regarded as claustrophobic , total enclosure fetishists like to practice these activities, sometimes combining them with bondage to intensify feelings of helplessness. Risks As with all activities involving bondage or potential risk to breathing, this is a risky activity. Clearly, maintaining an airway, preventing positional asphyxia , and ensuring that the enclosed person has a means of escape at all times are of paramount importance, if these activities are not to result in death. See the articles on Bondage BDSM bondage , and erotic asphyxiation for some discussion of the risks involved.
