Article Synopsis
- The paper reviews how healthcare professionals manage children after drowning incidents, specifically looking at interventions used across different medical settings, like prehospital care, emergency departments, and pediatric intensive care units.
- A literature review of 32 articles published between 2010 and 2022 was conducted to synthesize these interventions and map them out according to clinical practice areas.
- While the management techniques discussed are well-researched and evidence-based, the review found a lack of clear connections in the integration of these interventions from the initial drowning scene to the children's ongoing care in the PICU, and noted the absence of parental involvement in this process.
Researchers and clinical nurses need to collaborate to develop the clinical setting. Negotiating access to do research in the clinical setting can be challenging. The task of gaining access is often omitted and scarcely described in the literature.
