Unintentional Strangulation Deaths from the “Choking Game” Among Youths Aged 6 – 19 Years – United States, 1995 – 2007<\/h6>\n

The “choking game” is defined as self-strangulation or strangulation by another person with the hands or a noose to achieve a brief euphoric state caused by cerebral hypoxia. Participants in this activity typically are youths (1<\/i>). Serious neurologic injury or death can result if strangulation is prolonged.<\/p>\n

Parents, educators, and health-care providers should become familiar with warning signs that youths are playing the choking game.<\/p>\n

Death certificates lack the detail necessary to distinguish choking-game deaths from other unintentional strangulation deaths<\/p>\n
