near drowning? ?
i need a little research on
near drowning. i need it for a
report.
lets just say a 16 year old is
underwater for about a minute,
he's rescued from the pool and
someone does cpr on him until
he comes back..
now, what are the after
effects that happen briefly,
and what are some that may
happen later on. like does he
suffer brain damage or briefly
not be able to remember or
what?
should this person be taken to
the hospital, even if he feels
'ok.'?
what kind of things do the
medics ask when they arrive.
for instance"how long he was
submerged?", and if he's
breathing when they arrive
what happens or what do they
check? do they just give him a
breathing mask or something?
what would happen when the
medics arrive and what happens
during his stay at the
hospital? how long does he
stay in the hospital?
what are some signs people
should look for?
and what are the possibilties
of dry drowning afterwoods?

Im haunted by memories of my Last summer i passed out and
fell into a pool
I breathed in 800 mL of water
when i regained conciousness i
began to puke blood and water.
It hurt so bad i just prayed
for death. After that i began
to see ghosts and demons
everywhere, forcing me to
relive this memory. I have
been in a mental health clinic
twice and am on 6 different
medications. What should i do?

I am so sorry that happened to you. I understand what you are going through on both a personal and professional level. Our minds deal with things in funny ways. When something traumatic happens we tend to replay the images/memories in our mind until we can make sense of them. It sucks, I know. I also know that mental health professionals don't always understand. I would suggest writing. The best form is called stream of consciousness. (You might have been told to do this before. You should have anyway.) When doing this you need to let your mind wander and just write whatever comes to your mind without dwelling on it. It is like you are writing without thinking. This lets your mind process the events without having to consciously relive that day. Therapy is always something that is to be considered. You said you went to a clinic twice. Was it the same one? Different clinics have different approaches to treatment. Some take a purely scientific, medical treatment angle while others incorporate spirituality and religion into their treatment programs. Another thing to look at with your doctor is the medications you are on. Sometimes medications can actually make depression and memory trauma worse for some people. It may be helpful to change a few of those around. On a personal note, I was haunted by the memories of my almost death and the death of my unborn child. It was very hard and I know how reliving the most horrible moment of your life makes it very difficult to want to wake up in the morning. It does get better. I promise. One day you will wake up and not have had a nightmare. There may not be a day when you don't remember the incident, but there will be a day when it doesn't paralyze you with fear and hurt and anger and sadness. Good luck with everything. I hope things work out. |

1. Check to see if they are breathing. 2. If not breathing...administer 2 emergency breaths 3. If still not breathing, 30 chest compressions then 2 breaths, keep repeating until ambulance arrives or patient recovers. 4. The casualty MUST go to hospital even if their breathing didn't stop because SECONDARY DROWNING may occur, this is when the lungs are irritated and fill with fluid. It is possible for a near drowning casualty to drown many hours after the event so they should always be x rayed. 5. If the casualty IS breathing, then turn them into the recovery position....on their side with head tilted up. It is important to get trained in resuscitation techniques. |
