Nghe An 8-year-old boy held a broken electric tester and plugged it into an electrical outlet, causing electrocution and death before being taken to the emergency room.

According to the family, at 3:00 p.m. on May 31, the grandparents found the baby unconscious on the floor, with an electric tester nearby. Thinking that the baby had a common illness, the grandparents performed some respiratory methods, then carried the baby to a neighbor's house, called for help, and took him to the Dien Hung Commune Health Station, Dien Chau District for examination.

After examination, the medical agency determined that the boy died outside the hospital, the cause of which was electrocution. Authorities determined that while playing at home, the boy plugged an electric tester into an electrical outlet. Because the pen was broken, electricity leaked out of the pen and caused the shock.

The child was on summer vacation and was taken to his grandparents' house to play when the accident happened, said the leader of Dien Hong commune.

Doctors recommend that families pay attention to their children's activities and studies to avoid unfortunate accidents such as electric shock and injury.

To avoid electric shock, parents should cover electrical outlets with plugs. Replace frayed or damaged electrical cords; arrange electrical cords out of reach of children. Make sure all electrical appliances in the home are certified for safety. Unplug when not in use. Use electrical appliances in dry areas andeducate children about the dangers of electricity and how to use electricity safely.

When discovering a victim of electric shock, calmly remove the power source, unplug the cord, turn off the circuit breaker, use insulating objects to remove the power source from the victim. Do not directly contact the patient without making sure the power source has been removed from the victim's body; ensure a safe emergency environment, pay attention to cases of electrical leakage, wet floors.

If the victim has burns or injuries, they should be taken to the emergency room for evaluation and treatment by doctors; do not apply ice, ointments or leaves to the burn.
