The CDC reports that an average of about 10 drownings occur each day. More than one in four drowning deaths in children 14 and younger. For every child who drowns, there are at least 4 people who visit the emergency room for nonfatal submersion injuries. No fatal injuries Drowning can be devastating and can cause permanent brain damage, including learning and memory problems, and permanent loss of brain function.

Children under 5 years are at greater risk of drowning around because his energy and curiosity can easily lead to fall into bodies of water, including baths or buckets, which can not escape. Among children aged 1 to 4 years old who die in crashes, nearly 30% do so through accidental drowning. Fatal drowning is the second leading cause of injury deaths unintentional in children 1 to 14. Children under age 1 most often drown in bathtubs, buckets or toilets. With children between the ages of 1 and 4 Most incidents occur in swimming pool drownings. Most children who drown in pools in last place in the house, had been out of sight for less than five minutes, and were in the custody of one or both parents at the time.

There are certain risk factors that exist for fatal and non-drowning fatal. A risk factor is the absence of barriers to the pool, the other is the lack of parental supervision. Most accidents involving children during the first minutes after the paddling pool was last seen. Many incidents occur because the baby pool with easy access to water. Reported drowning incidents that occur in natural environments such as lakes, rivers and oceans increases with age of the child.

Parents can take steps to minimize the risk of a drowning incident. The most important step is to ensure adequate adult supervision. Parents should keep children in sight at all times when the child is near water. While watching the children, the father must also avoid participating in leisure activities like reading, watching television, playing cards, working in gardening, etc. should be erected barriers around swimming pools or other bodies of water. A child should not be allowed to physically access the water without adult help. Parents also must teach their children to swim. Of children to water through swimming lessons is a very good idea. Do not allow children to misuse of devices inflatable without direct supervision. Toys as "water wings" "Noodles" and "cameras" are not designed to keep swimmers safe. Moreover, these toys can give a child a false sense of security and encourage children to take more risks (for example, to venture into waters deep, etc.).
