Determinations of standard lung volumes, mechanics of breathing, and single breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO) were obtained serially in two young patients who survived near drowning in fresh water. These patients were nonsmokers and neither had a past history of lung disease. Pulmonary function studies in both patients revealed a restrictive ventilatory defect with a decreased forced vital capacity and total lung capacity. One patient also exhibited a markedly decreased DLCO. No obstructive lung disease was found in either case. All pulmonary function abnormalities returned to normal during the 16 week follow-up period. Near drowning in fresh water did not cause permanent pulmonary dysfunction in these two young patients.
对两名淡水溺水后幸存的年轻患者进行了标准肺容积、呼吸力学及单次呼吸一氧化碳弥散量（DLCO）的系列测定。这两名患者均不吸烟，且既往均无肺部疾病史。两名患者的肺功能研究均显示存在限制性通气功能障碍，用力肺活量和肺总量降低。其中一名患者的DLCO也显著降低。两例均未发现阻塞性肺疾病。在16周的随访期内，所有肺功能异常均恢复正常。淡水溺水未导致这两名年轻患者出现永久性肺功能障碍。
