How can I lower my risk of cerebral hypoxia?
It’s important to manage conditions like high blood pressure. Conditions that can cause a heart attack or stroke increase the risk of cerebral hypoxia.
You can also take safety measures to lower the risk of accidents that cause cerebral hypoxia. You and your family can:
- Buckle up with seatbelts.
- Install smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in your home.
- Use life vests, swim at places that have lifeguards and supervise children around water, including bathtubs.
- Wear helmets during high-impact physical activities or while biking, skating or skiing.
