Will You Really Die From an Air Bubble in a Syringe?
<p>I’ve seen it featured in medical dramas on television: there’s an air bubble, either from a syringe or from an IV bag, that gets into a patient’s bloodstream. Smash cut to the patient collapsing from a terrible stroke.</p>
<p>It’s scary to think about — something as simple as a routine vaccination or injection could leave you incapacitated or dead, just from a little bit of gas slipping in where it doesn’t belong.</p>
<p>…right?</p>
<p>Or is this a medical myth, and you can handle some air in your bloodstream without issue?</p>
