	CHEST: Respiratory Arrest in the Eye Clinic - ) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Respiratory arrest is a rare complication of retrobulbar anesthesia.
		One prospective study of 3,123 retrobulbar injections reported a nearly 10-fold higher incidence of respiratory arrest with the use of 4% lidocaine mixed with 0.75% bupivacaine, occurring in 7 of 888 injections (0.79%), compared to 2% lidocaine mixed with 0.75% bupivacaine, noted in 2 of 2,235 injections (0.089%).
		Although the precise mechanism for respiratory arrest with retrobulbar injection of anesthetic is not known, retrograde movement of the anesthetic along the optic nerve sheath to the respiratory center in the brainstem has been postulated (Fig 1).

		Respiratory arrest from peripartum cardiomyopathy is commonly the result of progressive, classic cardiac failure with gradual onset of tachypnea, dyspnea, and orthopnea.
		Respiratory rates of greater than 26/minute are uncommon, and hint strongly at pulmonary or cardiac causes of respiratory failure.

	THE MERCK MANUAL, Sec. 16, Ch. 206, Cardiac And Respiratory Arrest And Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
		Complete respiratory arrest manifests clinically as absence of spontaneous ventilatory movement in an unconscious person, often with associated cyanosis, but it may develop acutely in a conscious victim secondary to foreign body obstruction (eg, café coronary).
		Impending respiratory arrest is characterized by a depressed sensorium and feeble, gasping, or irregular respirations, often with accompanying tachycardia, diaphoresis, and relative hypertension due to agitation and CO accumulation.
		Suspicion necessitates arterial blood gas analysis to confirm hypoxemia and hypercapnia (hypercarbia) because clinical estimation alone of the adequacy of ventilation is unreliable.

	WSAVA 2001 - Emergency Respiratory Assessment
		A normal animal should have a respiratory rate of 15—30 breaths per minute and, because the majority of a resting inspiration is due to diaphragmatic contraction, there should be very little apparent chest movement.
		One clinical scenario that is often associated with this respiratory pattern is pneumothorax, and in dogs with spontaneous, rather than traumatically induced pneumothorax, the degree of chest movement can be surprisingly mild for the volume of pneumothorax.
		Respiratory distress is one of the most challenging situations facing the emergency clinician.

	NEJM -- Respiratory arrest in near-fatal asthma
		The majority of asthma-related deaths occur outside the hospital, and therefore the exact factors leading to the terminal event are difficult to ascertain.
		To examine the mechanisms by which patients might die during acute exacerbations of asthma, we studied 10 such patients who arrived at the hospital in respiratory arrest or in whom it developed soon (within 20 minutes) after admission.
		The characteristics of the group were similar to those associated in the literature with a high risk of death from asthma, including a long history of the disease in young to middle-aged patients, previous life-threatening attacks or hospitalizations, delay in obtaining medical aid, and sudden onset of a rapidly progressive crisis.

		Apnea can be intermittent and temporary, as occurs with obstructive sleep apnea, or prolonged.
		Prolonged apnea (respiratory arrest) is a life-threatening disorder that requires immediate medical attention and first aid.
		In infants and children, the most common cause of cardiac arrest (lack of an effective heartbeat) is a preceding respiratory arrest.
