Gefahr in der Hosentasche – explosive E-Zigarette

Abstract: Zusammenfassung Einleitung Seit ungefähr einem Jahrzehnt erfährt die elektronische Zigarette (E-Zigarette) in Europa eine zunehmende Beliebtheit, sei es als Nikotinersatztherapie, als trendige Verführung für Jugendliche, oder für Gelegenheitsraucher mit oder ohne Nikotinzusatz. Neben dem noch weitgehend unbekannten pulmonalen Schadenspotenzial einer Langzeitexposition kann es zu einer Explosion von Akkumulatoren mit spezifischen Verletzungsmustern kommen. Die meisten Anwender sind sich der Gefah… Show more

“…Increasing safety concerns over the routine use of flammable and unstable organic electrolytes are challenging conventional alkali metal-ion batteries, posing a formidable barrier to the application of modernly portable and implantable electronics [ 1 , 2 ]. In many cases, there are potentially devastating complications associated with toxic and unstable batteries lodged in the esophagus [ 3 ], ear canal [ 4 ] and oropharynx [ 5 ], resulting in corresponding liquefactive necrosis, tissue destruction and explosively burn-related injuries [ 6 ]. Therefore, in the general survey of the strict requirements in vivo [ 7 ], the conviction must have been forced upon us that biocompatibility has been put forward and regarded as one of the bottlenecks.…”

“…E-cigarettes (75.51%, 37/49) and mobile phones (14.29%, 7/49) are also common devices with severe battery explosions. 28,29 Battery explosion can occur when the device is in standby mode (53.06%, 26/49), running mode (22.45%, 11/49), or charging mode (20.41%, 10/49). Complications of battery explosion include skin burn (65.31%, 32/49), ocular burn (14.29%, 7/49), and oropharyngeal and palatal burns (6.12%, 3/49).…”

“…National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) reported approximately 75 cases from 2015 until December 2019, with battery explosion in pants pockets leading to injury on thigh, calf, abdomen, buttock, hand, groin area etc. (8). Although burn injuries from ENDS are not common, the force of the explosion of the battery body leads to injury patterns that require treatment in specialized centers with the entire spectrum of burn care.…”

“…Proper handling of Conformité Européenne (CE)-certified devices is essential because any manipulation of the device in the event of battery or functional defects is highly dangerous. Therefore, security precautions must be observed (8). Though many reported ENDS explosions occurred independent of the use of the device, injurious explosions have occurred during device operation (9).…”
