An anoxic brain injury occurs when there is a lack of oxygen going to the brain. When this oxygen deprivation occurs, brain cells can start to die within five minutes. Causes of anoxic brain injury can be blood clots, shock, heart problems, diseases, anemia and even lack of air at high altitudes.
There are four types of anoxia, but each can cause the same serious damage to the brain. 1  Anemic anoxia. This form of anoxia results from blood that cannot carry sufficient oxygen to the brain. 2  Toxic anoxia. This form of anoxia is caused by toxins in the system that prevent the bloodâs oxygen from being used efficiently. 3  Stagnant anoxia.
