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.

Quick Review Before Making Adventure Dives, Let’S Review to Be Sure Your Basic Dive Knowledge Is Fresh
Name ______________________________________________________________________________ Date _______________ Quick Review Before making Adventure Dives, let’s review to be sure your basic dive knowledge is fresh. The Quick Review goes over concepts you learned in your Open Water Diver course. If you recently completed the Open Water Diver course, this will be a quick refresher. If it’s been some time, the Quick Review will not only help you refresh your memory, but will help bring you up to date with changes, and alert you to anything you might want to review with your instructor. 1. You should equalize your ears and other air spaces while descending: □ a. only when you feel discomfort. □ b. approximately every metre/few feet, before you feel discomfort. 2. If you feel discomfort in your ears while descending, ascend until the discomfort is gone, attempt to equalize again and continue a slow descent if successful. Never continue a descent if you can’t equalize. □ True □ False 3. The most important rule of scuba diving is: Breathe continuously and never hold your breath. □ True □ False 4. If you feel discomfort during ascent due to air expansion in a body air space: □ a. slow or stop your ascent and give the trapped air time to work its way out. □ b. continue ascending; the air will force an escape path. 5. If you begin shivering underwater, increase your activity to warm up. □ True □ False 6. If you become overexerted underwater: □ a. stop, breathe and rest. □ b. swim quickly to the surface and signal for assistance. 7. Planning a dive should include (check all that apply): □ a.

A REVIEW of CASES of PULMONARY BAROTRAUMA from DIVING EBH Lim, Jhow
A REVIEW OF CASES OF PULMONARY BAROTRAUMA FROM DIVING EBH Lim, JHow ABSTRACT Pulmonary barotrauma is a condition where lung injury arises from excessive pressure changes. Five cases of pulmonary barotrauma from diving have been seen at the Naval Medicine and Research Centre from 1970 to 1991. Four suffered surgical emphysema while one developed cerebral arterial gas embolism (CAGE). These cases are presented and discussed, including the predisposing factors, common signs and symptoms and essential treatment of this condition. Keywords: Pulmonary barotrauma, cerebral arterial gas embolism. SINGAPORE MED .I 1993; Vol 34: 16-19 INTRODUCTION CASE REPORTS Pulmonary barotrauma is a condition where lung injury occurs Case I as a result of excessive pressure changes. It arises because of HICK, aged 26, a naval seaman made a SCUBA dive on the the inverse relationship between the volume of a given mass of morning of 20 May 1976.
