With chloroform overdose, death is almost always due to the affect on the respiratory system (with the exception of asphyxiation simultaneously or being injected directly into the chest cavity piercing the heart.) . As the organ dies, the heart can still continue to beat after the blood pressure has fallen and respiratory ceases. If Caylee were still breathing shallow, or her heart continued to beat, this could explain the duct tape and why prosecution allege Caylee was chemically restrained before being taped.
Of course, it is always more concentrated when injected rather than inhaled. If I recall correctly, the lab report said it was a rather high concentration of chloroform, it was also noted they weren't sure how a 2-3 yr old child could ingest such a quantity.
