Diver rescue, following an accident, is the process of avoiding or limiting further exposure to diving hazards and bringing a diver to a place of safety. A safe place is often a place where the diver cannot drown, such as a boat or dry land, where first aid can be administered and from which professional medical treatment can be sought. In the context of surface supplied diving, the place of safety for a diver with a decompression obligation is often the diving bell. Following rescue, it may be necessary to evacuate the casualty to a place where further treatment is possible. == Reasons for needing rescue == There are many reasons why a diver may need rescue. These generally imply that the diver is no longer capable of managing the situation. Scenarios requiring rescue include: * running out of breathing gas * inability to access the breathing gas due to an equipment failure * unconsciousness * inability to see the depth gauge or diving computer to make a safe ascent, generally because the diving mask is lost, keeps flooding or is damaged * panic * incapacitated due to trauma, diving disorder, or medical condition * becoming lost or trapped underwater * inability to control buoyancy and/or inability to apply thrust sufficiently to ascend (in Scuba diving without a lifeline) * inability to return to the shore or a boat after a dive * hypothermia * narcosis * exhaustion The diver may get into a situation requiring rescue through incompetence, unfitness or bad luck. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Diver rescue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
