Drowning Management.
Military Medicine 2018 September 2
Highly skilled swimmers and aquatically adaptable service members such as U.S. Navy Divers, Sea, Air and Land (SEAL) Teams, and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) technicians, die every year from drowning. Drowning is the cause of over 500,000 deaths annually across the globe. This Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) provides an overview of drowning and associated conditions based on the best available current medical evidence. Unlike basic life support and advanced cardiac life support protocols, rescue breathing should be initiated prior to chest compressions to re-expand water-filled alveoli. These guidelines should be used as a standardized framework to guide first responders, prehospital emergency medical service personnel, and medical department personnel in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing common in water pathologies.
