A friends 2 year old boy choked on a grape and stopped breathing for approx 3 -5 mins, an ambulance took him to hospital and he s breathing un aided but they want to transfer him to a specialist hopspital for a brain scan. How worried should I be about brain damage?
Hibrain is very sensitive organ and cannot survive without oxygen more than 6 min. If you had breathlessness for enough duration it is better to see brain damage for future management
