Near drowning.
A doctor may be asked at any time to render first aid to an apparently drowned person, often when there is little or no medical equipment available and no trained persons present to assist with the resuscitation. This article concentrates on the pathophysiology of drowning, and how it influences the treatment (especially in the prehospital phase).
