- W65647488 abstract "Lightning strikes cause more deaths in the United States than other natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, volcanoes, and floods. Lightning is a transfer of an electrical charge and results from the sudden environmental discharge of static electricity. The power of lightning is estimated to be between 10,000 and 200,000 A of current, with estimated voltage ranging from 20 million to 1 billion V. The effects of lightning on the human body depend on a number of features, such as the intensity of the current, the time it spends passing through the body, the pathway involved, the activity and position of the person at the time of the event in relation to the ground, and the kind of strike (direct strike, contact voltage, side splash, ground strike, or wire-mediated lightning). Lightning strikes result in multisystem dysfunction, and survivors may experience prolonged disability following recovery from the initial insult. Electrical energy causes muscular spasm and necrosis, thrombosis, blood vessel tears, unconsciousness, and motor and sensory function abnormalities. Most deaths after lightning strikes occur either because of primary cardiac arrest or hypoxia-induced secondary cardiac arrest. If multiple persons are struck, attention at the scene should be directed first to those who appear dead, because they may be in respiratory arrest and in urgent need of immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation that can be successful in lightning strike victims for far longer than would seem reasonable in other types of injury." @default.
