Among 188 respondents, 39.9% worked in private practice or academic institutions. Usage rates were 50.5% always, 27.7% never and 21.8% sometimes. Opinions on intraoperative neuromonitoring necessity varied, with 55% disagreeing and 32% agreeing. No differences were noted by practice type or location. Among intraoperative neuromonitoring users, 47% found it sensitive and specific, while 45% used it for medico-legal reasons. Of non-users, 26% preferred other technologies.

Although it is not common practice, there has been a strong increase in its use during the past 20 years, thanks to the accessibility of information on the web and materials needed to implement it. From a pathophysiological point of view, there are various theories on how helium can change the timing and, also, the cause of death when the head is inside a plastic bag. We report two cases where we believe that the action of helium, whose unequivocal use is demonstrated by the circumstantial data, has unfolded in a different way. In the first case, the discovery of an intense cyanosis of the face, blood leakage from the respiratory orifices and the destruction of numerous alveolar septa with histologically demonstrated blood extravasation, was left for a longer agonic period and a no negligible rate of pulmonary barotrauma in determination of death.
