Predictors of good prognosis for pediatric drowning patients.
Clin Exp Emerg Med
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Kangwon National University School of Medicine, Chuncheon, Korea.
Objective: We evaluated prognostic factors for pediatric drowning patients. The association between functional outcomes and clinical factors was investigated.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using data for pediatric drowning patients from the Korean Community-based Severe Trauma Survey from 2016 to 2020.
The role of accidental hypothermia in drowning patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A nationwide registry-based cohort study.
Resuscitation
January 2025
Prehospital Center Region Zealand, Ringstedgade 61, 13th floor, 4700 Naestved, Denmark.
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the associations between hypothermia and mortality or poor neurological outcome in a nationwide cohort of drowning patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).
Methods: This nationwide, registry-based cohort study reported in-hospital data on drowning patients with OHCA following the Utstein Style For Drowning. Drowning patients with OHCA were identified in the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry from 2016 to 2021.
Biological markers as an additional method of determining drowning.
Open Vet J
November 2024
Department of Clinical Sciences Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary faculty, University of Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Background: There is no specified diagnostic procedure that can help in determining the cause of death and the diagnosis of drowning because the pathohistological signs are almost identical and non-specified.
Aim: Our study aims to recognize and prove diatom appearance in organs from a forensic aspect in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and to examine which is the more specific method in the diagnosis of drowning, the diatom test or the pathohistological finding.
Methods: Rats of the recommended body weight were divided into four groups: G1 ( = 8; mechanism of death-asphyxia; cause of death-suffocation, submerged 1 hour after death); G2 ( = 8: mechanism of death-asphyxia; cause of death-suffocation, immersed 72 hours after death); G3 ( = 8: mechanism of death-asphyxia; cause of death-drowning, autopsy immediately after death), and G4 ( = 8: mechanism of death-asphyxia; cause of death-drowning, post mortem 24 hours after death).
Factors Associated with Pediatric Drowning-Associated Lung Injury.
J Pediatr
December 2024
Division of Emergency Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, USA.
Objective: To identify risk factors for clinically-important drowning-associated lung injury (ciDALI) in children.
Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study of children (0 through18 years) who presented to 32 pediatric emergency departments (EDs) from 2010 through 2017. We reviewed demographics, comorbidities, prehospital data, chest radiographs reports, and ED course from emergency medical services, medical, and fatality records.
Training Children for Prehospital Aquatic Interventions: Assessing Throwing Skills Using Traditional and Alternative Materials in a Simulated Water Rescue.
Prehosp Disaster Med
December 2024
CLINURSID Research Group, Psychiatry, Radiology, Public Health, Nursing and Medicine Department; University of Santiago de Compostela, A Coruña, Spain.
Background: Drowning remains a significant cause of mortality among children world-wide, making prevention strategies crucial. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends training children in safe rescue techniques, including the use of basic skills such as throwing floating objects. This study aims to address a knowledge gap regarding the throwing capabilities of children aged six to twelve using conventional and alternative water rescue materials.
