First Aid for People Who Drowned

The breath of people who drowned can be stopped because the water has entered. However, the act of emptying the stomach and lungs from water is not the primary thing.

Aid Measures :

The main thing to do is providing artificial respiration. so after the head out of the water, artificial respiration from mouth to mouth must be done immediately. If necessary, you do not have to wait until the whole body out of the water.

Touch the pulse on the neck. If stopped, do the heart massage immediately. These efforts must continue until the patient regained consciousness or can not be helped anymore. If the heart is still beating, continued to do artificial respiration.

If the patient is conscious, then he/she will vomit the water that has been swallowed or foods that were eaten (vomiting is a common thing). Aid  patients in order to breathe regurlarly. Tilt the head and body of the patient, so that water does not enter into the lungs. If that happens, take the patient to the doctor to prevent infection of the lungs.
