Serious electrical injuries are rare but may have life-threatening consequences. Voltage exposure injuries are divided into low voltage injury (LVI) or high voltage injury (HVI). An LVI current can result in severe injury, depending on the length of exposure, the size of the individual, the cross-sectional area in contact with the electrical source, and environmental humidity. The authors present a 31-year-old male with accidental electrocution with low voltage current and cardiopulmonary arrest. A detailed revision by organs and systems is presented. LVI is uncommon and can occur with a variety of clinical presentations, rarely presenting with direct lung injury. Early recognition and support are the cornerstones of treatment.
严重电损伤虽罕见，但可能导致危及生命的后果。电压暴露损伤分为低电压损伤（LVI）或高电压损伤（HVI）。低电压电流造成的损伤可能很严重，这取决于暴露时间、个体大小、与电源接触的横截面积以及环境湿度。作者报告了一名31岁男性因意外低电压触电致心肺骤停的病例。文中对各器官和系统进行了详细检查。低电压损伤并不常见，可有多种临床表现，很少表现为直接肺损伤。早期识别和支持是治疗的基石。
