How Lifeguards would know the severity, treatment and outcome of drowning on the accident site
1. How Lifeguards would know the severity, treatment and outcome of drowning on the accident site Dr David Szpilman
2. E STABLISHED FOR ALL LIFEGUARDS : These cases compose only 0 . 5% of all cases rescued by lifeguards at the beach Respiratory arrest = Start artificial ventilation immediately. Cardiopulmonary arrest = Start CPR immediately.
3. What about 9 9. 5% of all cases rescued at the beach, what should be done? How are we to know which cases need an EMT or an MD? ? Should we give oxygen in all cases ? , if so, how much ? Should we call an ambulance? Should we transport all of them to a hospital? Should we release or keep them a while in observation? How are we to know the prioritization on a busy day?, and
4. Do you need to know how to act appropriately and confiden tly in those cases? On a busy day, as a lifeguard, would you get medical support as quickly as you need ed ? or
5. That´s why rescuers need a DROWNING CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM It a llows Lifeguards and MD teams to speak the same language It gives the exact severity of the case It gives exactly what approach should be taken It a dvise s when to call an ambulance It a dvise s when to call an EMT or a MD It r eassure s lifeguard ’s in front of the population, and
6. DROWNING CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM How it was created and applied in Rio de Janeiro It was recently (2001) validated by a 10 year study with 46,060 rescues, of which 930 (2%) were drowning s attended at the DRC It was updated from a classification system from 1972 It was based on the evaluation of 41,279 rescues The final group evaluated came from 1,831 medical reports It was based on beach and hospital attendance Only clinical parameters w ere considered to facilitate the use It was adapted to be underst ood by lifeguards It ’s been use d since 1973 by more than 1,400 lifeguards in Rio de Janeiro

11. Grade 3 Drowning Classification - BLS Based on evaluation of 1,831 cases - CHEST - September 1997 LARGE AMOU N T of FOAM in MOUTH & NOSE RADIAL PULSE PALPABLE (normal blood pressure) MORTALITY - 5.2% 1. 15 liters / min of oxygen by face mask at the accident site. 2. Right side recovery position. 3. ACLS and hospitalization in ICU required.
12. Grade 4 1. 15 liters/min of oxygen by face mask. 2. Monitor breathing with care (may stop breathing). 3. Right side recovery position. 4. ACLS immediat e with mechanical ventilation and I.V fluids. 5.

13. Grade 5 1. Start artificial ventilation immediately (in-water) and keep it at a rate of 12 per min. Victim usually recover after a few breathing. 2. After restor ing ventilation , follow guideline for grade 4 Drowning Classification - BLS Based on evaluation of 1,831 cases - CHEST - September 1997 ISOLATED RESPIRATORY ARREST MORTALITY - 44%
14. Grade 6 1. Start and continue CPR . 2. No one is considered dead if hypothermic. Do not give up! 3. Do not resuscitate if s ubmersion time over 1 hour or obvious physical evidence of death . 4. After successful CPR, victim should be followed as close ly as possible and t reated as grade 4. Drowning Classification - BLS Based on evaluation of 1,831 cases - CHEST - September 1997 CARDIOPULMONARY ARREST MORTALITY - 93%
15. CLASSIFICATION and MORTALITY (n = 1831) Using clinical classification at the accident site we can recommend the treatment and know exactly the likelyhood of death. Dr David Szpilman 38,975 considered rescues cases were excluded from th is table GRADE NUMBER (n) Mortality 1 1189 0 (0.0%) 2 338 2 (0.6%) 3 58 3 (5.2%) 4 36 7 (19.4%) 5 25 11 (44%) 6 185 172 (93%) P < 0.0001
