Swimming-Induced Pulmonary Edema: An Underrecognized Cause of Triathlon-Associated Medical Emergencies

Swimming-induced pulmonary edema is a leading cause of triathlon-associated emergencies and death. Cold water immersion, female sex, age>50, and wetsuit compression are associated risk factors. Pathophysiology is due to increased central blood pooling, leading to increased pulmonary capillary wed...

description Swimming-induced pulmonary edema is a leading cause of triathlon-associated emergencies and death. Cold water immersion, female sex, age>50, and wetsuit compression are associated risk factors. Pathophysiology is due to increased central blood pooling, leading to increased pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. Treatment is focused on prevention; however, recurrence is common.
