Administering Oxygen is one of the most important aspects of first aid for decompression sickness, lung overexpansion injuries, and also for many non diving issues such as strokes. However, statistics say that less than 50% of Injured divers actually are administered Oxygen, and those that do get Oxygen don’t get near 100% concentrations due to improper administration. This class teaches you how to correctly and safely administer 100% Oxygen to an injured diver.
