Electrocution

First aid for electrical shock injuries in children, emphasising scene safety (disconnect power before touching the child), CPR readiness, burn care, and mandatory hospital evaluation for all cases. Apply when: When a child has sustained an electric shock from any source: household outlet (220V in Israel), electrical cord (especially oral contact/biting in toddlers), faulty appliance, exposed wiring, or high-voltage source. Signs include burns at contact points, loss of consciousness, muscle rigidity or spasms, difficulty breathing, cardiac arrest, or the child being found unresponsive near an electrical source.
