Abstract in brief

The Drowning Chain of Survival is a simple, universal tool designed to improve drowning prevention and response globally, tailored for both high-income and lower-income nations to guide policy, education, and rescue efforts.
It emphasizes a best-evidence approach to create clear steps for preventing drowning and effectively reacting to incidents, including recognition, rescue, and care.
