Submersion accidents continue to be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children and adults. The key to successful management is prevention of these accidents. Proactive efforts to minimize submersion accidents in the community should be made by medical and legislative groups. Anticipatory guidance by primary care physicians, particularly

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1977
Several conditions that contribute to drowning and near drowning must be considered in the treatment of near-drowned victims. Regardless of the cause, mechanical ventilation should begin as soon as possible and closed-chest cardiac massage should be administered when there is any question about the adequacy of cardiac output. After aspiration of either

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.

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.

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.
