abstract="In response to the letter of colleagues Hawkins and Sempsrott, we totally agree that in future articles on drowning, only the new terminology should be used.  We are aware of the World Congress on Drowning 2002 in Amsterdam, and recognize that a change in the terminology of drowning accidents was proposed. In the following years there was a debate on this, and both terms were used during that time.  Today, the new definition is widely accepted and has been adopted as the standard worldwide.  In conclusion, we can only agree with Hawkins and Sempsrott that in future publications in this field, the new terminology (“drowning”) should be used.",
