This paper describes the basic physical aspects of electricity and the harmful effects of electric shock to the various human organ systems. Treatment of electrical injuries differs from treatment of burns. Damage to muscles and subcutaneous structures necessitates a more aggressive fluid replacement regimen than the one predicted by the commonly used burn fluid resuscitation formulas. It is of paramount importance to avoid renal complications. Early fasciotomy and repeated surgical debridements are often necessary. Routine arrhythmia-monitoring is now considered unnecessary in individuals exposed to low tension alternating current unless arrhythmias requiring treatment are present at the primary medical contact.
