Two cases of traumatic asphyxia in young children are reported. The first was a 2 year old child run over at low speed by the front wheels of a delivery van. He made an uncomplicated recovery. The second child was pinned to the floor by an empty chest of drawers in an unwitnessed accident. He was discovered in cardiac arrest and resuscitation was unsuccessful. The outcome following traumatic asphyxia is a product of duration of compression and the weight involved. Considerable weight can be tolerated for a short period, whereas a comparatively modest weight applied for a longer period may result in death.
报告了两例幼儿创伤性窒息病例。第一例是一名2岁儿童被一辆送货车的前轮低速碾压。他顺利康复。第二例儿童在一场无人目睹的事故中被一个空衣柜压在地板上。他被发现时心脏骤停，复苏未成功。创伤性窒息后的结果是压迫持续时间和所涉及重量的产物。短时间内可以承受相当大的重量，而较长时间施加相对较小的重量可能导致死亡。
