IE Guidelines Rescue Exercise#7
Guidelines for evaluation of Rescue Exercise 7 at the PADI IE. 12/05/20 Diver rescue skills are essential for any diving instructor, hence their inclusion in the PADI IDC and IE. PADI has a responsibility to the diving public to ensure that all PADI Instructors are able to demonstrate and teach divers’ essential rescue skills. This requires them to be evaluated prior to certification as a PADI OWSI. The current Covid19 public health crisis has raised a number of questions on how to conduct the Rescue E 7 evaluation and adhere to local health and safety authority guidelines and World Health Organization recommendations to minimise the likelihood of disease transmission. Adhering to the following procedures will allow rescue demonstration skills to be evaluated at the IE and meet recommendations for minimisation of disease transmission. Equipment. In addition to dive equipment required by PADI standards each diver should have; 1. A personal rescue breathing mask (RBM). Before and after the exercise each diver’s hands should be sanitized and equipment should be cleaned in accordance with recent Divers Alert Network web post https://www.diversalertnetwork.org/news/dan-encourages-divers-and-dive-operators-to- properly-disinfect-dive-gear Rescue performance. Commence rescue as normal with exception that victim’s RBM should be on the rescuer’s wrist or some location known and easily accessible to the rescuer. There is no change to the setup of the skill or the way the rescue is performed up until the point the rescuer makes physical contact with the victim. From that point forward the rescuer is to; 1.

2010 ANZHMG Statement Mild HBOT
78 Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine Volume 40 No. 2 June 2010 The world as it is ANZHMG statement on the administration of mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy David Smart and Michael Bennett Key words Mild hyperbaric therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, hyperbaric facilities, medical conditions and problems, evidence, medical society, policy Executive summary (ANZHMG statement on the administration of mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine. 2010;40(2):78-82.) ‘Mild’ hyperbaric therapy (MHT) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy are easily confused. Essentially the difference lies in the effective oxygen dose. Oxygen is an extremely useful and effi cacious drug in a wide range of medical conditions. MHT does not typically provide more available oxygen to the body than is possible with oxygen administration at one atmosphere (sea level), and there is no known therapeutic benefi t of mild compression alone. There is, therefore, no documented, biologically plausible evidence for the use of MHT over delivery of oxygen by a simple facemask at one atmosphere of pressure. MHT is advocated for a wide range of clinical conditions, in particular for chronic neurological conditions and as part of a suite of ‘wellbeing’ therapies. The Australia and New Zealand Hyperbaric Medicine Group, a standing sub-committee of the South Pacifi c Underwater Medicine Society, is not aware of any reliable clinical evidence for therapeutic benefi t from mild hyperbaric therapy and does not recommend the use of this modality for any medical purpose. Introduction practice of HBOT from the various forms taken under the umbrella term ‘mild hyperbaric therapy’. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is an established treatment for a number of health conditions.

2010 NOAA Diving Program Annual Report
NOAA DIVING PROGRAM 2010 Annual Report NOAA Diving Center 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle, WA 98115 NOAA Diving Program Executive Summary This report highlights some of the significant events and achievements accomplished by NOAA divers throughout the world during fiscal year 2010. NOAA divers perform a wide variety of underwater tasks in support of NOAA’s mission. During the year NOAA divers, and reciprocity partners, conducted dives across the globe, from the Red Sea to Alaska, Rhode Island to Wake Island, the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of California, and the Caribbean Sea to the Puget Sound. Numerous technical reports, peer-reviewed publications and presentations at national and international scientific meetings were made possible by data collected during these operations. Statistically FY10 was a very safe and productive year for the NOAA Diving Program (NDP). Despite a 4% decrease in number of divers (466), the Program experienced a 4% increase in the number of dives performed (13,987) and a 12% increase in total hours of dive time (9,099). Of these dives, 71% (9,873) were associated with scientific observation and/or data collection; 16% (2,247) involved non-scientific tasks, such as mooring installation or maintenance, and 13% (1,869) were non-duty dives including those associated with dive training and maintenance of dive proficiency (see Chart 1). From a safety standpoint, the Program experienced three cases of ear/sinus barotrauma and one laceration requiring stitches, none of which resulted in loss of work time. No cases of decompression illness were reported. The activities in this report represent a small fraction of the operations conducted by NOAA divers on a daily basis.
