Venous Oxygen Embolism Produced by Injection of Hydrogen Peroxide into an Enterocutaneous Fistula
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In Brief We report a venous oxygen embolism that occurred in a 66-yr-old man after 60 mL of 3% hydrogen peroxide was injected into a perianal fistula intraoperatively to locate its internal opening. The diagnosis was made after detecting hypoxemia, decreased end-tidal carbon dioxide tension, systemic hypotension, increased central venous pressure, and a new heart murmur. The patient recovered quickly and had no long-term sequelae. Oxygen embolism is a potentially fatal complication that can develop when hydrogen peroxide is used near venous spaces, and clinicians should be aware of the potential dangers when using this seemingly innocuous chemical. IMPLICATIONS: Hydrogen peroxide is used intraoperatively and perioperatively for the identification of fistula tracts. A venous oxygen embolism occurred in a 66-yr-old man after the intraoperative injection of 60 mL 3% hydrogen peroxide into an enterocutaneous fistula. The relevant aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of oxygen embolism are discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
