In most cases the water doesnt kill people they tend to kill themselves. Cold water, alcohol, and sportsmen are the primary are obvious elements in many fatal drownings. Alcohol and and fairly easily understood. Here are a few tips on cold water involvement, not so well understood. The last thing a person suddenly immersed in cold water should do is remove layers of protective insulation. In almost every case, the more clothing a person wears, the warmer he stays and the better he floats as long as he doesnt struggle. Air trapped in layered clothing or the toes of boots can support and insulate a person in the water if he holds still. Struggling, swimming or treading water forces the air out and increases the body heat loss and the chances of swallowing cold water. Tack, Huddle, and Be Still A clothed person who inadvertently falls into the water should gently roll onto his back and slowly hand scull to safety. Rolling into a ball or fetal position, tucking with arms close to sides and head out of the water, or huddling with others is an effective defense against hypothermia. Swimming, treading water, drownproofing (or survival swimming), which involves bobbing in the water, and-o- r removing clothing are not only questionable practices in most cold water situations, but may be lethal for poor or Incidentally, approximately 40 percent of heat is lost from the face, head, and neck, and a significant amount is also lost from the sides and the groin. Now you know why on the recommendations. From Cold to Hot I recently learned at our annual American College of Sports Medicine meetings that there are some dangers for pregnant women in extreme heat. There is danger of damaging the fetus if the mother runs too long in the heat, as is often done in some races. Maintain good water intake whenever running in the heat and stay out of hot tubs and saunas. All raise the body temperature to the danger point during pregnancy. While we are talking about hot weather running, a couple of additional tips are in order. Avoid an excess of highly salted food (good advice anytime) and three or four days before long runs or races have a large intake of water. Finally, avoid high fiber foods a couple of days prior to a race to prevent runners diarrhea, caused largely by the fiber residue in the body. That means cutting back, temporarily, on vegetables, fruits, and whole grain products. All of the good things like ding dongs, cakes, pies, ice cream, and sweet drinks are fair game to replace your glycogen. 2 WEEKS ONI CHS of savings cooling demonstrated in the tests by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory parallel results obtained in a similar series of computer tests by Gordian fatalities are usually accidental Water-relate- SUPER SALE & DOCK'S Recent medical advances have given new hope to infertile couples, and the symposium will get that information to the couples and professionals concerned with infertility.

The result is that far too many people are being injured and killed needieslly, the Council said. Bailey also said that in the next ten years of normal driving, it is very likely that each one of us will be involved in a motor vehicle accident serious enough to injure or even kill someone.

The principle behind the protection that safety belts provide is that the passenger slows down with the car on impact, rather than continuing to travel at the same speed the car was traveling.

Tofany, president of the Council, but our statistical evidence proves that occupants of smaller vehicles are twice as susceptible to death or a disr jling injury in high speed crashes than are of occupants larger vehicles. Tofany noted that the results of recent Council studies showed that the likelihood of a fatality in an accident involving a small car is twice as great as that of one involving a large car. Many similar studies have arrived at the common denominator that human error or improper driving is the major factor in approximately 85 percent of all traffic accidents, he said. Because of factors, the driving public must take all precautions available to them to defend themselves from possible death or injury from an accident," he said. |
