Summary

This study looked at how emergency medical services treated 296 adults who nearly drowned in France. Researchers wanted to understand what breathing support patients received and how long care took, because there are no standard guidelines for this situation. The goal is to use this information to create better, more consistent emergency care for drowning victims.
