This was covered here in the news, also.

Zan, I wanted to ask you something ... this will go beyond training and rely heavily on personal experience:

In the event of resuscitation from drowning:
-- lungs filled with fluid
-- training states pump-legs, begin CPR (respiratory)

At which point are bronchai filled with fluid? When respiratory-CPR begins and FORCES fluid deeper into these tiny pockets?

I am asking because it is not recommended to turn the drowning-victim upside-down, and it should be, PRIOR to attempting to re-inflate lungs.
