| | Postgraduate Medicine: Summer Emergencies Symposium: Near drowning |
 | | The male predominance in most studies of drowning deaths reflects increased exposure to aquatic environments, risk-taking behavior, and use of drugs and alcohol (4). | | | High-speed boating, in particular that involving personal watercraft, has increased in the last decade and has heightened the risk of drowning associated with head and neck injury. | | | Keeping copies of these tips available may be a good reminder and a starting point for patient education. |

| | Drowning |
| | Perhaps children are less rigid in their belief system and therefore less emotionally bruised by drowning - ergo, they are more able to experience, remember and integrate a NDE than an adult. | | | The mystical experiences seemed to focus on whether the colors or visions were reported, while the hyper-alertness factors concentrated on the lucidity of the experience. | | | An article written by Russell Noyes and Donald Slymen, from the early days when NDE research was primarily considered a brain-chemistry phenomena, studied the impact of different ways of dying on certain categories of experiences (Noyes, 1984). |

| | Swimming Pool Safety |
| | Although a fence separating the pool and spa in the single most effective barrier for preventing childhood drownings, not one method alone is totally effective in preventing drowning accidents. | | | A temporary lapse in supervision is a common factor in most drownings and near-drownings. | | | There is often no splashing to warn of trouble. |

| | Pentobarbital therapy does not improve neurologic outcome in nearly drowned, flaccid-comatose children. | | | This has created a growing moral and practical dilemma for families and friends of victims, as well as for doctors and other medical professionals, who have to make painful decisions about whether to undertake or to continue resuscitation measures. | | | There is no question that similar reductions could be achieved by education programs stressing the importance of adult supervision of children near water, the wearing of life jackets in boats, and -- above all -- avoiding drugs and drinking while swimming or boating. |

| | Secondary causes of drowning include seizures, head or spine trauma, cardiac arrhythmias, hypothermia, alcohol and drug ingestion, syncope, apnea, hyperventilation, suicide, and hypoglycemia. | | | Cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension secondary to hypoxic neuronal injury is frequently observed, but studies have shown that invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure is neither useful nor necessary in near-drowning incidents. | | | This is consistent with increased risk-taking behavior in boys, especially in adolescence. |

| | If there is an open wound in the chest, which you can diagnose if you hear air sucking in and out as the dog breathes, seal off the chest by pinching the skin together over the wound. | | | Other causes are foreign bodies in the airways and injuries to the chest that interfere with breathing. | | | Then position the dog with the head lower than the chest (on a slope, or with a roll beneath the chest) and begin artificial respiration. |
