Electrical Defibrillation

In resuscitation from drowning it must be remembered that when breathing movements are absent no time must be wasted in attempts to drain the lungs. Reoxygenation must be started immediately with exhaled air. Positive pressure ventilation with oxygen should be substituted as soon as possible. It should be continued in victims of sea water submersion until a blood specimen can be examined and any plasma deficiency corrected. In fresh water drowning intermittent positive pressure ventilation combined with closed chest cardiac massage is a preliminary to external electrical defibrillation. Prevention of delayed death depends upon the management of massive hemolysis, hypervolemia, electrolyte imbalances, aspiration pneumonitis, and myocardial failure.
