  • Possible outcomes of electric shock accidents:

    Shock and recovery (obviously the preferred outcome)
    Survival and permanent damage, e.g., scarring, or muscle damage;
    Death from heart stoppage despite CPR;
    Delayed death from heart damage;
    Delayed death from severe third-degree external burns;
    Death from internal burns and organ damage;
    Injury from falls and from severe muscle reaction; and
    Eye and ear damage form intense arc flash.
