Watch: / slatester http://slatev.com • Follow: / slateviral / slatevideo • Not breathing? No problem! • Scientists have created microparticles that can be injected into the bloodstream, oxygenating the body and allowing a person with respiratory failure to stay alive and well for 15 to 30 minutes. • The medical breakthrough, developed by a group of scientists and chemical engineers at Boston Children's Hospital, could have huge implications for keeping people alive because it adds precious time for doctors to operate on a patient who, for instance, had had his or her lungs collapse. • The breakthrough reportedly came when the team was able to put oxygen into tiny pockets of fat, creating tiny deformable particles that oxygenated blood cells rather than creating gas embolisms. • The microparticles can apparently carry several times the oxygen content of regular blood cells. Cardiologists and researchers think someday soon, paramedics could carry the life-saving stuff in ambulances. Next, we're going to see those weird oxygen bars get even weirder, with a new type of delivery system.
