Victims of near hanging are being increasingly seen in accident and emergency (A&E) department. This paper reports on seven cases of near hanging seen over four years in a district general hospital. The mechanism of injury is ligature strangulation rather than cervical spinal cord injury. All cases of near hanging should be actively and vigorously resuscitated, as initial presenting features bear a poor correlation to eventual outcome.
在事故与急救(A&E)科室中,接近上吊未遂的受害者越来越常见。本文报告了一家地区综合医院在四年内收治的七例接近上吊未遂病例。损伤机制是勒颈窒息而非颈脊髓损伤。所有接近上吊未遂的病例都应积极、大力地进行复苏,因为初始表现与最终结果的相关性较差。
