Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Facts. 1  A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that occurs when bacteria enters into any part of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, or urethra.
During 2005â2009, overall, an average of 3,880 persons died from unintentional drowning (including boating incidents) annually in the United States (1.29 deaths per 100,000 population) (Table).
Facts. 1  Drowning is preventable. 2  Drowning is a silent event. Children will rarely scream, call out or splash for help. 3  Submersion takes less that 10 seconds. 4  Losing consciousness takes 2 minutes. 5  Permanent brain damage takes only 4-6 minutes. 6  Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death for children under 14 years of age. Children under age one most often drown in a bath tub, toilet or bucket. Approximately 3,500 children are treated in emergency rooms for near drowning incidents each year. For every child who dies by drowning, another four are hospitalized. Many never recover from brain damage that occurs while they are under water.
