  • (Ua) Scientific Diving Safety Manual
    UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA (UA) SCIENTIFIC DIVING SAFETY MANUAL AVAILABLE ON-LINE AT: http://www.uaf.edu/sfos/research/scientific-diving/ Revised 2/2019 Page 1 FOREWORD Since 1951 the scientific diving community has endeavored to promote safe, effective diving through self-imposed diver training and education programs. Over the years, manuals for diving safety have been circulated between organizations, revised and modified for local implementation, and have resulted in an enviable safety record. This document represents the minimal safety standards for scientific diving at the present day. As diving science progresses so must this standard, and it is the responsibility of every member of the Academy to see that it always reflects state of the art, safe diving practice. The policies, procedures and standards set forth in this Scientific Diving Safety Manual are intended to govern the training and diving operations of all personnel participating in the Scientific Diving Program at the University of Alaska (UA). It applies to all divers operating under UA auspices, including visiting divers, and to those UA Fairbanks, UA Anchorage, and UA Southeast campus officers responsible for the administration of this scuba program.

    ON 0UR DOORSTEP I MEMORIAM THE SECOD WORLD WAR 1939 to 1945 HOW THOSE LIVIG I SOME OF THE PARISHES SOUTH OF COLCHESTER, WERE AFFECTED BY WORLD WAR 2 Compiled by E. J. Sparrow Page 1 of 156 ON 0UR DOORSTEP FOREWORD This is a sequel to the book “IF YOU SHED A TEAR” which dealt exclusively with the casualties in World War 1 from a dozen coastal villages on the orth Essex coast between the Colne and Blackwater. The villages involved are~: Abberton, Langenhoe, Fingringhoe, Rowhedge, Peldon: Little and Great Wigborough: Salcott: Tollesbury: Tolleshunt D’Arcy: Tolleshunt Knights and Tolleshunt Major This likewise is a community effort by the families, friends and neighbours of the Fallen so that they may be remembered. In this volume we cover men from the same villages in World War 2, who took up the challenge of this new threat .World War 2 was much closer to home. The German airfields were only 60 miles away and the villages were on the direct flight path to London. As a result our losses include a number of men, who did not serve in uniform but were at sea with the fishing fleet, or the Merchant avy. These men were lost with the vessels operating in what was known as “Bomb Alley” which also took a toll on the Royal avy’s patrol craft, who shepherded convoys up the east coast with its threats from: - mines, dive bombers, e- boats and destroyers. The book is broken into 4 sections dealing with: - The war at sea: the land warfare: the war in the air & on the Home Front THEY WILL OLY DIE IF THEY ARE FORGOTTE.

  • Using Underwater Pulse Oximetry in Freediving to Extreme Depths to Study Risk of Hypoxic Blackout and Diving Response Phases
    ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 01 April 2021 doi: 10.3389/fphys.2021.651128 Using Underwater Pulse Oximetry in Freediving to Extreme Depths to Study Risk of Hypoxic Blackout and Diving Response Phases Eric Mulder 1* and Erika Schagatay 1,2 1 Environmental Physiology Group, Department of Health Sciences, Mid Sweden University, Östersund, Sweden, 2 Swedish Winter Sports Research Centre, Mid Sweden University, Östersund, Sweden Deep freediving exposes humans to hypoxia and dramatic changes in pressure. The effect of depth on gas exchange may enhance risk of hypoxic blackout (BO) during the last part of the ascent. Our aim was to investigate arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate Edited by: (HR) in shallow and deep freedives, central variables, which have rarely been studied Costantino Balestra, underwater in deep freediving. Four male elite competitive freedivers volunteered to wear Haute École Bruxelles-Brabant (HE2B), Belgium a newly developed underwater pulse oximeter for continuous monitoring of SpO2 and HR Reviewed by: during self-initiated training in the sea. Two probes were placed on the temples, connected Neal William Pollock, to a recording unit on the back of the freediver. Divers performed one “shallow” and one Laval University, Canada Kay Tetzlaff, “deep” constant weight dive with fins. Plethysmograms were recorded at 30 Hz, and University Hospital of Tübingen, SpO2 and HR were extracted. Mean ± SD depth of shallow dives was 19 ± 3 m, and Germany 73 ± 12 m for deep dives. Duration was 82 ± 36 s in shallow and 150 ± 27 s in deep Claus-Martin Muth, Universitaetsklinikum Ulm, Germany dives. All divers desaturated more during deeper dives (nadir 55 ± 10%) compared to *Correspondence: shallow dives (nadir 80 ± 22%) with a lowest SpO2 of 44% in one deep dive.

  • Training Objectives for a Diving Medical Physician
    The Diving Medical Advisory Committee Training Objectives for a Diving Medicine Physician This guidance includes all the training objectives agreed by the Diving Medical Advisory Committee, the European Diving Technology Committee and the European Committee for Hyperbaric Medicine in 2011. Rev 1 - 2013 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this document is to define more closely the training objectives in diving physiology and medicine that need to be met by doctors already fully accredited or board-certified in a clinical speciality to national standards. It is based on topic headings that were originally prepared for a working group of European Diving Technology Committee (EDTC) and the European Committee of Hyperbaric Medicine (ECHM) as a guide for diving medicine some 20 years ago by J.Desola (Spain), T.Nome (Norway) & D.H.Elliott (U.K.). The training now required for medical examiners of working divers and for specialist diving medicine physicians was based on a EDTC/ECHM standard 1999 and subsequently has been enhanced by the Diving Medical Advisory Committee (DMAC), revised and agreed in principle by DMAC, EDTC and ECHM in 2010 and then ratified by EDTC and ECHM in 2011. The requirements now relate to an assessment of competence, the need for some training in occupational medicine, the need for maintenance of those skills by individual ‘refresher training’. Formal recognition of all this includes the need to involve a national authority for medical education. These objectives have been applied internationally to doctors who provide medical support to working divers. (Most recreational instructors and dive guides are, by their employment, working divers and so the guidance includes the relevant aspects of recreational diving.
