Abstract

Young children continue to be victims of drowning and near-drowning. The pediatric critical care nurse is often called upon to care for a child following a near drowning event. The role of the nurse in assessment, early intervention and continuing critical care management, and primary prevention of water-related injuries are reviewed.
