Doctors: That is why vacationers drown

This season on the beaches lacks the elements of security, observers, but in certain areas, even health teams.

Durres Emergency Doctors, who face cases of drownings, point to causes.

The first drowning factor is the weather and not knowing swimming. Another factor is health conditions, especially heart conditions, acute conditions. At the same time, rescue teams should be present”, says Gazmir Demiri, hospital emergency doctor Durres. In addition to swimming waves, Durres emergency doctor Nancy Sulstarova has an appeal for vacationers of different age groups. For us as doctors, it is important that middle and third age, especially male sex, be careful at lunch times and at high temperatures. Gastroenterity causes collases of blood vessels, hypotheses and vital parameters. In drownings, other triggers may be the seizure, the heart attack. The new age is careful not to drink alcohol while on the beach and to swim directly. Consumers of narcotics mixed with alcohol can directly pass into cardiac arrest”, says Nancy Sulstarova, an emergency doctor. In most cases, drownings are recorded in the sea with waves, under conditions where mandatory safety elements are lacking at beaches. “Of course it takes the guards, because not all are familiar with the sea, swimming. I call on competent bodies to think of that again”, says a vacationer. The local government has not taken any measures for safety on beaches, in the application of a last year's VKM has surpassed it in competencies, while emergency doctors suggest that only three health teams in all the Durres beaches are operating, one in the “Hurage” sector, one in Lalz Bay, and a team in the movement of the Durres Regional Hospital emergency service.
