Overview
Cyanosis occur because of lack of oxygen in the blood and often due to a circulatory or ventilatory problem that leads to poor blood oxygenation in the lungs (central cyanosis) or due to inadequate circulation to the extremities (peripheral cyanosis). Cyanosis is commonly caused by respiratory disorders and it is also seen in a wide variety of cardiac and vascular disorders and the management depends on the causative factor.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
- Carbon monoxide poisoning
- Cardiac tamponade
- Cyanide poisoning
- Disseminated intravascular coagulation
- Epiglottitis
- Ethylene glycol
- Foreign body aspiration
- Hemothorax
- Malathion
- Myocardial infarction
- Parathion
- Pulmonary embolism
- Tension pneumothorax
Common Causes
- Birth asphyxia
- High altitude
- Methemoglobinemia
- Pulmonary stenosis
- Respiratory distress syndrome
- Tetralogy of Fallot
- Transposition of the great arteries
- Tricuspid atresia
