De sinus caroticus zorgt eerst voor bradycardie (tragere hartslag), daarna volgt bewustzijnsverlies en bij verder stimuleren kan dan de dood intreden.

Deaths from hanging in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia.Elfawal MA, Awad OA.
College of Medicine and Medical Sciences, King Faisal University, Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

An analysis of cases of hanging in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia over a period of five years is presented. Of 61 victims investigated there was a high incidence of suicidal hanging among expatriate males of lower socio-economic classes especially Asians, and in particular, Indians. Two distinct patterns of suicidal hanging were observed in this series. The first used a seemingly popular plastic clothes line, with complete body suspension. This produced a narrow ligature mark, commonly deep and high up in the neck, often with internal cervical injuries. In the second, soft cotton cloth was used with partial suspension of the body, which produced a broad, low, ill-defined ligature mark with facial congestion and petechial haemorrhages, but minimal or absent deep neck injuries. Classical external injuries of asphyxial death (congestion of the face and petechial haemorrhages) were more common in cases of partial suspension than in complete suspension. While the mechanism of death in the majority of cases of partial suspension was apparently due to airways or vascular obstruction, death in cases of complete suspension appeared to result from, in addition to obstruction (airways or vascular), vagal stimulation or carotid sinus pressure, or a combination of these. No fracture of the hyoid bone, thyroid cartilage or cervical vertebrae was detected in any of the victims in this series.

Unusual form of accidental mechanical asphyxia.Hejna P, Hottmar P.

This brief case report shows an unusual form of accidental atypical strangulation. A 46-year-old male became trapped between the rims of an automatically closing door during his hopeless effort to enter a supermarket at night. The victim's neck was violently pressed by the edges of the automatic door. From external observation we found an incomplete ligature mark and numerous small abrasions in the neck. On autopsy we found typical signs of asphyxia and fractures of the hyoid-laryngeal complex and bruising of the soft tissues of the neck. The subsequent toxicology was negative with the exception of alcohol level. We came to the common conclusion of a double form of mechanical asphyxia - atypical violent strangulation and atypical hanging. The third highly likely contributory factor of death was direct stimulation of the baroreceptor nerve endings in the left carotid sinus and left carotid sheath. In recent literature, there have been presented only a few cases describing this manner of asphyxia and death.

Role of carotid-body chemoreceptors and their reflex interactions in bradycardia and cardiac arrest.

Daly MD, Angell-James JE, Elsner R.

Stimulation of the carotid-body chemo-receptors by asphyxia during an apnoeic episode may contribute to the vagally mediated cardiac arrest and sudden death that sometimes occurs in man. Apnoeic asphyxia may be induced centrally or reflexly by stimulation of upper airways receptors. Conditions associated with apnoeic asphyxia and in which the risk is likely to be greatest include intubation, laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy; accidents involving underwater swimming; inhalation of sympathomimetic amines in aerosols by asthmatic patients; and chronic hypoventilation syndromes. These reflexes may be responsible for some victims of sudden infant death syndrome. Stimulation of the carotid bodies normally produces hyperventilation and bradycardia. When apnoea occurs centrally or reflexly, carotid chemoreceptor excitation resulting from asphyxia now causes a much enhanced bradycardia and even cardiac arrest, but paradoxically does not usually affect respiration. These reflexes and their interactions normally serve protective and purposeful functions, but may under certain circumstances become exaggerated and put the patient's life at risk.
