Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1993
The incidence, epidemiology, and pathophysiology of drowning and near-drowning are presented. Particular attention is paid to the neurologic and pulmonary pathophysiology indicators for monitoring and laboratory tests. Special attention to transportation of patients is given, and treatment in the field, emergency department, and pediatric intensive ...

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
Many thousands of individuals are near drowning victims each year in this country. The majority of these will be young, previously healthy people. The key to their successful outcome and return to productive, full lives is aggressive resuscitation by emergency physicians and prehospital care providers.

Emergency Medicine, 2002
AbstractWater immersion is a frequent cause of accidental death and hospital admission. This article outlines the pathogenesis and principles of treatment. Drowning is defined as death by asphyxia due to submersion in a liquid medium. Near‐drowning is defined as immediate survival after asphyxia due to submersion.

Pediatrics In Review, 1988
Drowning is the third most common cause of death for children between the ages of 1 and 14 years. Despite increasing understanding of the pathophysiology of drowning and continuing advances in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and support, efforts at cerebral resuscitation have been less successful, and it is estimated that only about half of the children ...

Intensive and Critical Care Nursing, 1995
Irrespective of the immersion medium, the primary consequence of any near drowning episode is hypoxemia and resultant hypoxia. The gravest consequence of hypoxia is cerebral insult. A major contributor to cerebral recovery in cold water drowning is hypothermia and resultant cerebral hypometabolism.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1978
Drowning is one of the three leading causes of accidental death. Dry drowning, the type in which no water enters the trachea, responds readily to resuscitation efforts. The current concept of drowning recognizes few differences between saltwater and freshwater aspiration; the therapeutic approach is the same for both types.

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1985
Near-drowning is defined as survival for at least some period of time after suffocation from submersion in a liquid. This article is a comprehensive review of the demography, pathophysiology, treatment, and prevention of near-drowning, an accident that affects approximately 6,000 to 7,000 Americans per year.

Submersion Injuries: Drowning and Near-Drowning
Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1989Submersion injuries are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children and young adults. The Emergency Department physician should be familiar with the epidemiology, pathophysiology, modes of therapy, and prognostic indicators in order to provide optimum resuscitation to the near-drowning victim, correct referral, and counseling to their families.
