Dr. Wang Mingxuan
The main cause of injuries and fatalities in electric shock accidents is typically the effect of electric current passing through the human body. Specifically, electric shock refers to internal injuries caused by current flowing through the body, disrupting the normal functions of the heart, respiratory system, and nervous system, thereby endangering life. Ventricular fibrillation induced by electric current is the primary reason for death from electric shock. In the event of an electric shock accident, the power supply must be promptly disconnected.
