Re: Distinction between BOed and "normally" drown person

I would like to add a comment, on the question wether to give a person a cpr blow right away, or first try to get the person breathing by using the btt. At the nordic deep site, you can read about a discussion simular to this one. Here the conclusion is that you may risk blowing air into the victims stomach because of the sealed airways. This may cause the victim to begin vomitting, which in the end will help to further complicate the situation.
And then i have a question.. have any of you ever experienced a person having a samba or BO after short sessions in a pool? i.e. after an 25 meter dynamic? or 30 second dive for instance? Or is it only when people push themselves that they risk BO and Samba?
Kind regards
