Study shows that 84% of drowning, the second cause of death in the small country, caused by distraction of the parents.
Matinhos - The death by drowning of a boy of 5 years in a pool of Guaratuba the last Friday shows that parents should be aware when the game involves water. Study of specialist David Szpilman drowning, medical director of the Brazilian Society of Saving Water, indicates that 89% of children have no supervision when the pool and 84% of drownings occur in the adult entertainment that goes with it. Both the drownings are the second cause of death among children in the country, losing only to traffic accidents, according to the Ministry of Health
Most recent survey data from the ministry show that in 2005, 1,496 children drowned in open water, swimming pools, bathtubs and other situations. Approximately 32% of them were aged between 1 and 4 years, 25% between 5 and 9 years and 40% between 10 and 14 years. Therefore, every care is low.
Because, as explained Lieutenant Leonardo Mendes dos Santos, public relations, the Fire Department, just four minutes of immersion to be cardiorespiratory arrest - which requires that the rescue is immediate. "The drowning causes lack of oxygen, which, if not lead to death, may leave sequelae, such as speech and thought," emphasizes the lieutenant.
Not to give chance to chance, the official public Karise Macioski Klos, 34 years, does not take the eyes of the son Nicolas, 5 years, playing in the pool. "Always watch the place is closed and that no children were running and pushing," says. Even careful bachelor's in law Maria Claudia de Azevedo Salles, 31 years, mother of Victoria, 4 years. "I usually check if you have emergency care on site. Here the association is attending a clinic for help and recreational supervision, "he says.
The coordinator of the training program to mobilize the NGO Child Safe, Alessandra François, says it is exactly this attitude of care that parents should take. According to Alessandra, in general, parents usually do not believe that something serious might happen to their children while they have fun in the water. "Children have no concept of danger. And these are silent accidents that happen in situations of leisure and recreation of the parents, "emphasizes.
Another approach is for the pool pump motors. The director-president of the Association Holiday Vivas, Silvia Basile, reinforces that if the system is on, entering the water is prohibited. "Whoever has hair should understand where are the drains and not to approach, since there may be suction. For small child, the situation is worse, since it can not release herself. "
