After the boy swam ashore, he developed symptoms of dry drowning. Ma Bao's wit saved his son's life.

During the summer vacation, my parents took Mingming to the seaside for a holiday. They had planned to go to the seaside in the afternoon, but dad was a little acclimatized and had diarrhea all the time. In order not to disappoint Mingming, my mother took Mingming to swim alone. 8-year-old Ming can swim, and her mother is very relieved. She is playing with her mobile phone on the shore, obviously having a good time alone in the water.

At this time, a big wave came and obviously choked. He turned pale and went ashore to find his mother. Suddenly, his mother found something was wrong. He began to vomit and felt weak all over, as if he had difficulty breathing. At this time, the mother shouted for help, and the lifeguard uncle quickly took out the vomit in Mingming's mouth, put the child's abdomen on his thigh, pressed the child's head down, then tilted the child's head backwards, raised his chin, and immediately gave Mingming mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration. Mingming seems to be getting better, so my mother quickly took Mingming to the hospital with an ambulance.

The doctor told Mingming's mother, "It's a good thing you rescued her in time. The child is now out of danger and needs to be hospitalized for some time. " A series of sudden symptoms frightened my mother. She thought she was very ill. The doctor told her that it was called "dry drowning". If not rescued in time, her child may be in danger.

In times of crisis, the mother was calm and resourceful, immediately responded to her son's abnormality, called for help immediately, asked professionals to give first aid to the child, and then sent him to the hospital, which finally saved his life.

1. What is "dry drowning"?

"Dry drowning" is relative to "wet drowning", which means that people are strongly stimulated, such as fright and cold. And mental stress leads to laryngeal spasm, which is a stress reaction of the body. However, after the glottis are closed, people can't breathe normally, and the oxygen in the body is gradually exhausted, leading to hypoxia, suffocation and even death. The incidence of dry drowning in children is higher than that in adults. Although the incidence rate is not high, it is on the rise in recent years, and parents can't ignore it.

Second, what are the symptoms of "dry drowning"?

Because the symptoms of dry drowning are not as obvious as wet drowning, it is easy to be ignored by parents. Parents must closely observe their children's performance when they are swimming. If there are other emergencies such as suffocation, parents should closely observe the mental state of their children after landing. If the following symptoms appear, you should rescue them in time:

1. Fatigue: Usually energetic children feel particularly tired and seem exhausted.

2. Cough: Or accompanied by sore throat and dry mouth.

3. Dyspnea: This is the most prominent symptom. The child is obviously out of breath and may be accompanied by facial swelling.

4. Chest pain.

Third, when the child is found to have symptoms of drowning, how should parents give first aid?

When the child is found to have symptoms of "dry drowning", it is most important to grasp the gold rescue time, only 4-6 minutes:

1. Take out the foreign body from the outlet and open the airway. Parents should try to pry open the child's mouth and take out foreign objects in the child's mouth.

2. Dump the water in the respiratory tract. Parents squat or sit, put the child's abdomen on the thigh, let the child face down and press the child's back, but this step should not be delayed for too long, so as not to miss the best rescue time.

3. mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration. Parents hold their children's nostrils and blow into their mouths. Remember to blow more. At the same time, do chest compressions for resuscitation.

4. Seek medical attention in time. Send it to the hospital in time and continue to observe under the guidance of a doctor.

Fourth, when children swim in summer, parents should not ignore the following details:

1. Real-time nursing. Some parents think that children can go into battle lightly. Actually, this is the biggest misunderstanding. As the saying goes, people who can swim are often drowned. Children's self-control is limited. Parents should keep a distance of no more than 50 cm from their children whether they can swim in the water or not. In case of danger, parents can take immediate measures.

2. Don't swim in the wild. Parents must not take their children swimming in undeveloped waters, where there are neither lifeguards nor corresponding safety measures, and parents do not know enough about the water quality in this area, which is very dangerous.

3. Parents should learn the necessary first aid knowledge. Don't wait for an accident to happen. Always remember that once you are in danger, you need to calm down and save yourself. At the same time, you should call your partner and seek medical treatment in time.

4. Warm-up before swimming can't be omitted. It is best for children not to eat an hour before swimming, and the warm-up exercise before swimming can not be ignored.

Dear parents, summer vacation is the most anticipated happy event for children, and it is also the high incidence of swimming safety accidents. It can be said that it is safe and no small matter. Parents must plan ahead and let their children spend this precious "eventful summer" safely.
