Richard E Moon1, Robert J Long.   

Abstract

Water immersion is a frequent cause of accidental death and hospital admission. This article outlines the pathogenesis and principles of treatment. Drowning is defined as death by asphyxia due to submersion in a liquid medium. Near-drowning is defined as immediate survival after asphyxia due to submersion.
