Symptoms of slight electric shock

summary

Electric shock, commonly known as electric shock, usually refers to the tissue damage and dysfunction caused by the human body directly touching the power supply or high-voltage electricity passing through the air or other conductive medium to transfer electric current through the human body. In severe cases, cardiac arrest and respiratory arrest occur. High voltage electricity over 1000V can also cause burns. Lightning damage belongs to the category of high voltage electrical damage. Symptoms of slight electric shock? Let's talk about it

Symptoms of slight electric shock

First: in fact, sometimes electric shock does not necessarily lead to death, the key is to look at the impact of the current through the human body, many times it is often low current through the human body. In general, it will not cause human death, it will only cause skin damage, and patients will feel numb and swollen.

Second: but if it's like that kind of high-voltage electricity, if it hits the human body, the patient usually dies in a flash. The maximum voltage that the human body can bear is 220 v. if it exceeds this limit, it is easy to cause instant organ failure, and there is no rescue time at all.

Third: however, some people do not die from electric shock, but from complications of electric shock. Many people will have skin burning, body ulceration and other symptoms after electric shock. This kind of patients will eventually die from bacterial infection or sepsis and other complications. Often with electric shock and not too much direct contact, but postoperative recovery is not good.

matters needing attention

Do not work with electricity as far as possible, especially in dangerous places (for example, the working place is very narrow, there are conductors with voltage above 250V around the working place), and do not work with electricity. If live working is necessary, necessary safety measures shall be taken (such as standing on rubber felt or wearing insulating rubber boots, covering other conductors or grounding points nearby with rubber cloth, and requiring special supervision, etc.).
