No single set of skills will meet all the various demands a dive accident may present. The Diving Emergency Management Provider (DEMP) program combines skills from four first-aid courses offered by your instructor to streamline and put into context the care that may be necessary. Starting with basic life support (Section 2), participants will become familiar with the signs and symptoms associated with cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack as well as with other diseases and conditions that may also pose an immediate threat to life. If there is any question about whether an injury may be present, a neurological assessment (Section 3) may help identify abnormalities that should prompt first-aid care and further evaluation. Oxygen first aid has long been established as the primary first aid for dive accidents. Recognizing the signs and symptoms indicative of decompression illness can facilitate prompt intervention with oxygen therapy, as taught in Emergency Oxygen for Scuba Diving Injuries (Section 4). Finally, at some point most divers will experience injuries, usually minor, from encounters with marine life while diving. Most of these injuries require only simple interventions. Occasionlly, however, more involved first aid is necessary. First Aid for Hazardous Marine Life Injuries (Section 5) covers both general care and more specific interventions that may be required. Successful completion of the Diving Emergency Management Provider course includes demonstrating skill competency and passing a final knowledge assessment for each section of the course. Upon successful completion of the course, you will receive a provider card indicating that you have been trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), use of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs), how to conduct a basic neurological assessment, administration of oxygen for scuba diving and drowning injuries as well as first-aid procedures for injuries caused by marine life. 4 Diving Emergency Management Provider First-Responder Roles and Responsibilities First aid is providing initial care for an injury or illness. The three key aims of first aid are to (1) preserve life, (2) prevent the condition from worsening and (3) promote recovery. All skills performed in an emergency should be within the scope of one’s training. Maintain skills and knowledge proficiency by reading current literature and participating in supervised practice sessions. Talk to your DEMP Instructor for options. Reading this handbook without instruction and skill practice will not make someone competent to provide CPR or first aid in a diving emergency. Course Prerequisites There are no course prerequisites for participation in this course. Some countries, states and local municipalities, however, may have minimum age stipulations for the use of 1 emergency oxygen and/or AEDs. Scuba Certification Scuba diving certification is not a course prerequisite. This course teaches scuba divers and interested nondivers how to provide appropriate first aid to injured divers. Familiarity with diving equipment and diving terminology will make understanding the material easier. Interested and informed nondivers, however, should be able to master the material. Retraining Since emergency-response skills deteriorate with time, retraining is required every two years to maintain the Diving Emergency Management Provider credential. In addition, regular practice is encouraged to retain skill proficiency. Continuing Education Continuing education is encouraged in the form of taking additional training courses, participating in supervised practice sessions, reading current literature and undergoing refresher training. Your DEMP Instructor can provide information about these programs. How To Use This Handbook Each chapter in this student handbook contains three distinct features. • The beginning of each chapter has a list of learning objectives. This is the information you should look for as you read the material, complete the knowledge-development sections and participate in class discussions. • Boxes labeled “Note” provide explanations that are important for understanding the material just presented. • Boxes labeled “Advanced Concepts” contain additional information beyond what is required for this course. It is enrichment for those students who want to know more. Terminology The Diving Emergency Management Provider student handbook introduces medical terms that may be unfamiliar to some readers. Familiarity with basic medical terminology will enhance the quality of communication with emergency and health-care workers. A glossary of terms is provided in the back of this handbook.

  • ICRC Duty of Care: Elements of Definition
    ICRC Duty of Care: elements of definition Definition “Duty of care” (DoC) is a legal concept that comes from common law and can be defined as a legal obligation requiring adherence to a standard of reasonable care while performing any acts that could foreseeably harm others. Another definition of DoC would be a legal obligation to act towards others with prudence and vigilance in order to prevent any risk of foreseeable damage. The (legal) consequence of a breach of such a duty is a legal liability imposed upon the author (of the breach) to compensate the victim for any losses they incur. DoC entails an obligation of means (obligation de moyens) as opposed to an obligation of result (obligation de résultat). This means that the author must take all appropriate measures and behave in an appropriate way in order to avoid causing harm to third parties. This being said, the fact that harm is done does not necessarily mean that the duty of care was breached (or, in other words that the author was negligent), as certain events are beyond the control of the author (because they were unforeseeable or unavoidable despite proper care being taken). The ICRC’s DoC obligations towards the defined population hence depend on the nature of the relationship between the ICRC and the concerned population (employees, accompanying dependents, Movement partners, external contractual partners) and the relevant (legal and contractual) provisions applicable to such relationship. Content The actual measure, scope or content of the “care” that is required in each situation depends primarily on two factors: (i) the relationship between the parties and (ii) the applicable law.

    Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation Masters of Advanced Studies Capstone Report Tracing The Hunter: Estimating the Abundance of Vulnerable Shark Species in Wakatobi, Indonesia by: Ahmad Hafizh Adyas June 9, 2014 Capstone Advisory Committee Stuart Sandin (Chair), Phaedra Doukakis-Leslie, Imam Musthofa Zainudin, Brian Zgliczynski Introduction Sharks belong to the taxonomic class Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fishes. Even though the majority of chondrichthyans live in the sea, their distribution still covers a wide range of habitats, including freshwater riverine & lake systems, inshore estuaries & lagoons, and coastal waters out to the open sea (Cailliet et. al, 2005). Most species have a relatively restricted geographic distribution, occurring mainly along continental shelves and slopes and around islands and continents, with some smaller species being endemic to isolated regions or confined to narrow depth ranges. However, other species are distributed more broadly, having biogeographic ranges spanning ocean basins. Only a relatively small number of species are known to be genuinely wide ranging. The best studied of these are the large pelagic species, which make extensive migrations across ocean basins. Most of the chondrichthyans are predators; however, some are also scavengers and some of the largest (whale, basking and megamouth sharks and manta rays) filter feed on plankton and small fish. However, none of these fishes are herbivorous. The predatory sharks are at, or near, the top of marine food chains (Cailliet et. al, 2005). Therefore, most shark populations are relatively small compared to those of most teleost fishes. Most shark species are opportunistic and consume a variety of food from small benthic animals such as polychaetes, molluscs, fishes and crustaceans to prey such as marine mammals including seals and cetaceans (Fowler et.

McLEAN Accepted 28 September 1995 Haszprunar, G. & McLean, J. H. 1995. Anatomy and systematics of bathyphytophilid limpets (Mollusca, Archaeogastropoda) from the northeastern Pacific.—Zool. Scr. 25: 35^9. Bathyphytophilus diegensis sp. n. is described on basis of shell and radula characters. The radula of another species of Bathyphytophilus is illustrated, but the species is not described since the shell is unknown. Both species feed on detached blades of the surfgrass Phyllospadix carried by turbidity currents into continental slope depths in the San Diego Trough. The anatomy of B. diegensis was investigated by means of semithin serial sectioning and graphic reconstruction. The shell is limpet­ like; the protoconch resembles that of pseudococculinids and other lepetelloids. The radula is a distinctive, highly modified rhipidoglossate type with close similarities to the lepetellid radula. The anatomy falls well into the lepetelloid bauplan and is in general similar to that of Pseudococculini- dae and Pyropeltidae. Apomorphic features are the presence of gill-leaflets at both sides of the pallial roof (shared with certain pseudococculinids), the lack of jaws, and in particular many enigmatic pouches (bacterial chambers?) which open into the posterior oesophagus. Autapomor- phic characters of shell, radula and anatomy confirm the placement of Bathyphytophilus (with Aenigmabonus) in a distinct family, Bathyphytophilidae Moskalev, 1978.
