TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Helium gas inhalation as a suicide technique JO - Malaysian Journal of Medicine and Health Sciences A1 - Singh, S. A1 - Mahdi, S.N.M. SP - 65 EP - 67 VL - 14 IS - 1 N2 - Helium gas inhalation for suicide is a relatively new technique and practically unheard of in Malaysia. The internet has helped spread this technique rapidly across the globe. We report a case of helium gas inhalation as a suicide attempt in Malaysia. Such a case offers a diagnostic challenge upon presentation. Simple techniques of ensuring adequate oxygenation can help in treatment of such cases. © 2018 Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences.
