In the CDC's Toxicological Profile for Chloroethane, they cite several deaths when it was used recreationally but also by doctors as an anesthetic.

We are deeply saddened to learn of another loss in the kink community.

Understanding risks helps us make informed decisions and prevent adverse outcomes, but there are some risks that cannot be mitigated.

Nerve compression might have no sensation at all, and only be evident in loss of movement. It is different from circulation issues, which might feel like the "pins and needles" tingly numbness of a limb falling asleep.

That's fair! For both the key control is avoiding surfaces that may have been in contact with fecal matter. Washing hands and toys after use, not performing fellatio right after it was in someone, and using condoms and dental dams can help prevent infections. rackwiki.org/wiki/Giardia

Tight restraints or prolonged immobilization can put pressure on nerves and restrict blood flow, potentially leading to nerve damage, numbness, tingling, or loss of sensation in the bound areas. Primary areas to look out for are the wrists and ankles to produce wrist and foot drop respectively.

Rimming can cause bacterial or parasitic infections such as giardia and shigella. Giardia is an intestinal infection that causes stomach cramps, bloating, nausea and bouts of watery diarrhea. Shigella is a bacterial infection that can cause long lasting and bloody diarrhea.

A core aspect of the wiki is the incident report system, so that we learn from our mistakes to save lives. Today, we're proud to publish our first incident report.

Thank you to all the volunteers who took time to speak and work with us on this.

Airway blockage or neck constriction while in vac beds may cause rapid loss of consciousness, progressing to death unless immediately reacted to.

When silicone is injected into areas with many blood vessels, it can migrate through these vessels and form a life-threatening blockage, known as an embolism.

When consciousness is lost due to hypoxia, the brain no longer communicates with the body normally and it is highly likely that a person will not let go of something they are holding.

Too many in our community have been hurt from lack of knowledge. We must change our culture to talk about risk in a nuanced and specific way, and emphasize harm reduction over abstinence. (12/13)

C1. RACKWiki publishes incident reports. Many who have died from kink were experienced, thought they knew what they were doing, but were unaware of, forgot, or dismissed a critical safety step that led to their death. (9/13)

B. RACKWiki does not endorse risky behavior. We do not want more people to engage in high-risk kinks, we want those that already do to have access to accurate and thorough knowledge which could save their life. We want fewer injuries. We want fewer of our friends to die. (8/13)

A. RACKWiki emphasizes harm reduction in its content. It is inevitable that some kinksters will engage in risky behavior, so we wish for them to be informed with an understanding of the specific health and legal risks, and options to mitigate them. (7/13)
