Prehospital Management

Drowning survival depends on a management chain, starting outside the hospital and continuing in-hospital during the post-resuscitation phase. Prehospital care personnel provide opportunity to perform rapid rescue from submersion. Re-establishing ventilation before CA nearly assures no long-term lneurological sequelae [19 , 20 ]. If CA occurs, CPR provides the best chance of neurological recovery.

Controversy exists over the optimal CPR method. Bystander chest compressions alone may be lbetter than rescue breathing combined with chest compressions (standard CPR) for resuscitating patients with sudden CA [21 ]. lDrowning victims were excluded in this analysis. Drowning victims asphyxiate which leads to CA, so maximizing oxygenation in addition to perfusion during CPR may improve outcome [22 , 23 ].

lTwo prospective, population-based cohort studies support performing standard CPR for drowning. Rescue breathing and chest compressions [ 24 , 25 ] and bystanders [26 ] may play an important role. Thus, it is recommended lthat drowning victims with no signs of life be provided chest compressions with rescue breathing rather than compression CPR alone.

The best method for ventilating and oxygenating drowning victims has not been established. lSupplemental oxygen should be provided to all drowning victims with evidence of hypoxemia or respiratory distress. Continuous or bi-level positive airway pressure may be advantageous if hypoxia is present and spontaneous ventilatory efforts are suboptimal in the conscious patient [27 , 28 ]. Assisted ventilation with a bag-valve-mask should be performed in unconscious patients or those that cannot maintain their airway.

“The boy left the house, walked to the back where the swimming pool is situated and fell into the swimming pool. Nobody noticed until much later. At that point in time, he had drowned and was at the bottom of the swimming pool.

“So, they brought him out and rushed him to the Lagoon Hospital, where the doctors tried unsuccessfully to revive him. They left the hospital and rushed the boy to Evercare Hospital, where he was declared dead.
