Lambertsen In 1940 Dr. Lambertsen presented the concept of a closed circuit diving apparatus to the U.S. Navy for use in military operations. He saw a potential operational requirement for teams of underwater assault swimmers. The rebreather unit he developed was called the "Lambertsen Lung" and later the "Lambertsen Amphibious Respiratory Unit" (LARU). The navy never acted on Dr. Lambertsen's concept and instructors at the Naval Combat Demolition School in Fort Pierce, Florida, also rejected the use of closed-circuit apparatus. During this period ofWWII the Italian navy had developed an effective offensive capability using closed-circuit apparatus against the British. The British soon entered the arena to combat the Italian success, while America stood idle. Still convinced of the soundness of his proposals, Dr. Lambertsen approached the Office of Strategic Services (O.S.S.) whose leadership had a much better understanding of his concept's potential.

This is a unique and comprehensive summary of world wide development in this field. It is probably not realised what a vital part closed circuit breathing apparatus played in World War II. Apart from escapes from damaged and sunken submarines by means of the DSEA, and the special attacks on ships by human torpedoes and X-craft, including the mortal damage to the "Tirpitz", an important part of the invasion forces were the landing craft obstruction clearance units. These were special teams of frogmen in oxygen breathing sets who placed demolition charges on the formidable underwater obstructions along the north coast of France.

  • Nasjonalt Handlingsprogram Med Retningslinjer for Diagnostikk, Behandling Og Oppfølging Av Prostatakreft UTKAST
    IS-1594IS- [XXXX] Nasjonalt handlingsprogrammedretningslinjerfordiagnostikk, behandling ogoppfølgingavprostatakreft UTKAST 2 Forord Mange medisinske faggrupper har i en årrekke lagt ned et betydelig arbeid for å komme frem til konsensusbaserte faglige anbefalinger for diagnostikk og behandling av ulike typer kreft. Faggruppenes anbefalinger har til nå manglet offisiell status, men har likevel dannet grunnstammen for tilbudet ved sykehusene. Som ledd i Nasjonal strategi for kreftområdet (2006-2009) fikk Helsedirektoratet i oppdrag å videreutvikle og oppdatere faggruppenes anbefalinger til nasjonale handlingsprogrammer for kreftbehandling, i nært samarbeid med fagmiljøene, de regionale helseforetakene, Nasjonalt kunnskapssenter for helsetjenesten, og andre relevante myndigheter. På denne måten vil de nye handlingsprogrammene fra Helsedirektoratet representere en videreføring og en formalisering av faggruppenes anbefalinger. Som ledd i videreutviklingen er det også utarbeidet et forslag til organisering av kontinuerlig oppdatering av handlingsprogrammene, herunder tidlig varsling av ny teknologi og metoder. Nasjonale handlingsprogrammer for kreftbehandling skal bidra til at det offentlige tilbudet i kreftomsorgen blir av god kvalitet og likeverdig over hele landet. Disse Nasjonale retningslinjene for diagnostikk, behandling og oppfølging av prostatakreft er en del av Nasjonalt handlingsprogram for prostatakreft. Målgrupper for retningslinjene er spesialister innen medisin, kirurgi, onkologi, radiologi og patologi. De vil også være av interesse

By way of catching up, we have produced a Summer double issue and have the good fortune to be able to publish with a color cover. Coinciding with the Santa Barbara relocation is the appointment, by the Board of Directors, of the first members of the HDS USA Advisory Board. This distinguished group of senior diving professionals, with extensive backgrounds in diving medicine, technical development, commercial, military and sports diving, bring in excess of 300 years of diving experience to the Society. Most of their biographies are the size of town phone directories, and have had to be severely edited for publication. We are honored and gratefulfortheir willing offers of service, and hope that we have done their biographies justice. Details start on page 4. The recently introduced, Founding Benefactor class of membership has proven to be very popular with over half of the thirty available memberships already taken. An opportunity still exists to acquire one of these unique memberships and details of it's benefits are noted on page 9. On the international front, the ongoing formation of the HDS USA as a nonprofit corporation has, by law, changed the conditions that govern our relationship with the HDS in UK.

  • The Blue Plaque Augustus Siebe Nick Rennison
    The Blue Plaque Augustus Siebe Nick Rennison The 'closed' diving helmet revolutionised diving by allowing the diver to remain underwater for longer and to dive deeper. Many of the great engineering projects of the Victorian era could not have been carried out without the work of divers, and they could not have done their work without the 'closed' helmet. It was invented by a German, Augustus Siebe, who lived and worked in Denmark Street, WC2 for nearly half a century. Siebe was born in Prussia in 1788 and had served as an artillery officer in the Prussian army against Napoleon, being wounded at the Battle of Lepzig in 1813. After the defeat of Napoleon he worked as a watchmaker before moving to London in the year after Waterloo. After living first in High Holborn, Siebe moved to Denmark Street in 1828 and it was there, twelve years later, that he designed his revolutionary ‘closed’ helmet. One of the first opportunities to show how effective Siebe's new helmet was came in the 1840s when divers descended into the waters off Spithead to investigate the wreck of the Royal George, a ship which had sunk there sixty years earlier. The helmet proved so successful that the same basic design was being used by the Royal Navy more than a century later. A man of great ingenuity and inventiveness, Siebe created many other machines at his workshop in Denmark Street, including a weighing machine, a paper-making machine and an ice–making machine. At the Great Exhibition of 1851, he won several medals for his inventions.
