Electric Shock First Aid Electric shock is a traumatic state caused by the passage of electric current through the body. The kind and amount of damage depends on the intensity, type, and duration of the current; the point where the electricity first touched the body; and the path it took through the body.
Electric Shock Injuries Electric shocks are responsible for about 1,000 deaths in the United States each year, or about 1% of all accidental deaths.
