SCUBA diving, including the use of compressed air and any gas mixture underwater, is an activity that has inherent risks. An individual may experience injury that can result in disability or death. Variations in individual physiology and medical fitness can lead to serious injury or death even with adherence to accepted standards of performance, specified oxygen limits, and the correct use of dive tables and computers. All persons who wish to engage in scuba diving must receive instruction from a certified instructor and complete nationally recognized requirements in order to be certified as a scuba diver. The use of alternative breathing mixtures, such as combinations of Oxygen, Nitrogen, Helium and/or Neon, requires additional instruction beyond that offered in traditional recreational SCUBA diving courses. Trained and certified SCUBA, using compressed air or alternative breathing mixtures, are informed of the risks associated with SCUBA diving and utilizing breathing mixtures as described and ultimately bear responsibility for their own actions. Persons must not engage in scuba diving and the use of compressed air or alternative breathing mixtures, if they are unwilling to complete a course of instruction, pass certifying examinations and evaluations, maintain their skill and knowledge through active participation in diving activities, and accept responsibility for any injury or death that may occur when participating in SCUBA diving activities.

  • DCS Treatment Updates
    Treatment of Decompression Sickness Operational Update – May 2001 Aspirin is NO LONGER USED in the treatment of DCS. Reasons: ASA administration has never been shown to help prevent or treat bubbles DCS may induce microhemorrhages in tissues. ASA slows clotting. Hard to determine if symptom decrease is due to HBO treatment table or ASA This may be a critical treatment decision factor if using TT-5 Hyperbaric Oxygen is the only necessary and sufficient drug for DCS Employment of 100% O2 by tight fitting aviators mask during transportation to HBO chamber For mild to moderate symptoms with no CNS or spinal neurological involvement: Use cycles of 50 min of 100% O2, followed by a 10 min air break, instead of continuous O2 Reasons: Air breaks minimize likelihood of pulmonary and CNS O2 toxicity Rehydrate & feed patient orally during air break May obviate need for IV rehydration Bathroom privileges during air breaks You ever wear a tight fitting oxygen mask for 3 hours straight? Patient can call spouse – “I’ll be home late tonight.” Air breaks are NOT used during SLO2 (Surface Oxygen) treatment protocols For severe symptoms, chokes, shock, CNS, spinal, or worsening Sx despite O2 therapy: Use continuous O2 therapy with IV rehydration (0.9% Saline or Ringers Lactate, NOT D5W) In general, do not pass up an otherwise acceptable monoplace facility (with BIBS) in favor of a multiplace facility for treatment of severe DCS or AGE if the additional travel time to the multiplace exceeds 30 minutes. Less than 30 minutes difference, or mild to moderate symptoms, requires the sending physician to consider risks and benefits of treatment delay versus multiplace advantages.

  • Supervised Dive
    EFFECTIVE 1 March 2009 MINIMUM COURSE CONTENT FOR Supervised Diver Certifi cation As Approved By ©2009, Recreational Scuba Training Council, Inc. (RSTC) Recreational Scuba Training Council, Inc. RSTC Coordinator P.O. Box 11083 Jacksonville, FL 32239 USA Recreational Scuba Training Council (RSTC) Minimum Course Content for Supervised Diver Certifi cation 1. Scope and Purpose This standard provides minimum course content requirements for instruction leading to super- vised diver certifi cation in recreational diving with scuba (self-contained underwater breathing appa- ratus). The intent of the standard is to prepare a non diver to the point that he can enjoy scuba diving in open water under controlled conditions—that is, under the supervision of a diving professional (instructor or certifi ed assistant – see defi nitions) and to a limited depth. These requirements do not defi ne full, autonomous certifi cation and should not be confused with Open Water Scuba Certifi cation. (See Recreational Scuba Training Council Minimum Course Content for Open Water Scuba Certifi ca- tion.) The Supervised Diver Certifi cation Standards are a subset of the Open Water Scuba Certifi cation standards. Moreover, as part of the supervised diver course content, supervised divers are informed of the limitations of the certifi cation and urged to continue their training to obtain open water diver certifi - cation. Within the scope of supervised diver training, the requirements of this standard are meant to be com- prehensive, but general in nature. That is, the standard presents all the subject areas essential for su- pervised diver certifi cation, but it does not give a detailed listing of the skills and information encom- passed by each area.

    INSTRUCTOR MANUAL Product No. 79173 (Rev. 12/19) Version 2020 © PADI 2020 PADI INSTRUCTOR MANUAL PADI® Instructor Manual © PADI 2020 No part of this product may be reproduced, sold or distributed in any form without the written permission of the publisher. ® indicates a trademark is registered in the U.S. and certain other countries. Published by PADI 30151 Tomas Rancho Santa Margarita, CA 92688-2125 USA Printed in USA Product No. 79173 (Rev. 12/19) Version 2020 Scuba diving can never be entirely risk-free. However, by adhering to the standards within this manual whenever training or supervising divers who participate in PADI courses and programs, PADI Members can provide a strong platform from which divers and novices can learn to manage those risks and have fun in the process. How to Use This Manual This manual provides PADI course requirements. Text appearing in boldface print denotes required standards that may not be deviated from while teaching the course. PADI Standards do not, however, supersede local laws or regulations. Keep informed of these wherever you teach. Though all PADI Members use this manual, it is written from the instructor’s perspective, except for course performance requirements. These are written from the student diver’s or program participant’s perspective, stating specifcally what must be demonstrated or performed. As a starting point, become familiar with the items in the Commitment to Excellence section. This includes the PADI Professional’s Creed, PADI Member Code of Practice and Youth Leader’s Commitment. This section outlines your professional commitment to diver safety, responsibility and risk management.
