The following document provides the etiology, pathophysiology and mechanism of injury of electrical injuries since it
present serious and common form of trauma. The severity of electrical injuries is depend on the intensity of the current, the type of current, the pathway of the current through the body, the duration of exposure to the current and electrical resistance to the current, accordingly.
What you will see in the depth of the document are section such as the classifications of specific causes of electrical injuries (low/high-voltage injuries, Lightning injuries, intentional injuries, major mechanisms in the pathophysiology of electrical injuries, pattern of injury/tissue damage, and more.
