Let me tell you a story. At least once a week, one of my friends or someone I know will contact me with the same question: “I am getting to that age where heart disease is a possibility. What do I need to do?” After getting tired of writing long emails, I started thinking I should put together a presentation they could watch. This would at least prevent me from going over the same topic over and over again.

Circulation, Ahead of Print. Drowning is the third leading cause of death from unintentional injury worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury-related deaths. The World Health Organization estimates that there are ≈236 000 deaths due to drowning worldwide each year. Significant efforts have focused on creating systems to prevent drowning, but an average of 4000 fatal and 8000 nonfatal drownings still occur annually in the United States—likely an underestimate.
