Mom immediately jumped off the ladder and used tools to open the door of the shower room, trying to hold her daughter out. “At that time, there was a little water on the ground. I touched the shower switch and was charged.” Xiaomin’s mother said that the family who later came to call 120 for help immediately.

"She would have been to Qingbu Middle School on September 1st. Since she was far away from home, we just bought her a bicycle." Xiaomin's mother said in tears, the daughter had not had time to ride away. . “This summer, she learned to cook for us to eat, to take care of her sister at home, you do not know how much she is!”

Mr. Zeng said that the family used the “Europe* brand” DSZF-Y50J1 type storage-type electric water heater, which was purchased at a counter in a mall in Huadu on January 13 this year. It took exactly seven months to reach the night of Xiaomin’s accident. . Earlier this month, Mr. Zeng converted the electric water heater from the old shower room to the newly built shower room. There was no abnormality before the incident, but he did not expect the eldest daughter to accidentally shower. Afterwards, the family discovered that the two nails used for the fixed shower had also been ejected and fell to the ground.

“We went to the site to check the electric water heaters and there was no problem!” Mr. Hu, a sales representative of the manufacturer, said when asked by reporters yesterday that the technicians had been dispatched to the site the next day after the incident.

“We hope that more authoritative departments will intervene and test our products.” He even expressed doubts that Xiao Min whispered at an accident. “Is there a problem with this child?”

Doctors

If the amount of current is small, it will cause similar symptoms of epilepsy.

The focus of the dispute between the two sides was Xiao Min's vomiting at the time of the accident. Is it an electrocution or his own problem?

"Electric shock may cause symptoms similar to epilepsy. It is not uncommon for such patients to be rescued when they are on the road." Last night, an emergency doctor from a top three hospital in Guangzhou said that because the human body is a conductor, electric shock is instantaneous, if the current is extremely high, The heart will stop immediately.

However, if the amount of current is not very large, the current will stimulate the nerves of the brain and cause symptoms like seizures, persistent convulsions and other seizures. In addition, many people with electric shock will twitch violently in an instant and it is easy to bite the mouth and bleed.
