The 6th Edition of the Commercial Diver Training Manual represents an almost total rewrite. Where previous editions were designed to be utilized in conjunction either with the NOAA Diving Manual or the U.S. Navy Diving Manual, the 6thEdition has been written as a stand-alone work that covers history, physics, physiology, diving medicine, and first aid in addition to those chapters devoted to diving technique, diving equipment, and working underwater. This manual is presented with the understanding that fully qualified instructors experienced in underwater work will provide any further explanation required by the reader. At the same time, the intent was to provide a manual to enhance both the theoretical and the practical training of the diver, with a view to providing graduates that are more knowledgeable and well informed in their chosen trade, performing their assigned tasks in a safe and productive manner. To that end, this manual strives to present the following: Diving physics in a clear, concise manner The latest theory and procedure in physiology and diving medicine The latest in practice and procedure both inland and offshore The most commonly used diving and support equipment accepted for use in today's industry While it is understood it would require several volumes to address every conceivable task performed on every type of underwater project employing commercial divers, this manual endeavors to cover the most commonly performed tasks and the most common underwater operations. By presenting these more common projects and tasks in detail, it is hoped the reader will be better informed and better prepared for a career underwater. In addition, by further illustrating both technique and safety concerns with case studies and personal accounts from the author's career, the manual shows the reader these are more than just words being presented: suggestions help the reader become more proficient and safety guidelines keep the reader from injury or death.

Diver Medic Field Operations: A Practical Guide is just that, a practical guide. This text has been written to provide trained Diver Medics with a reference guide to care for individuals in need of not only emergency care but also many of the non-emergent clinical medical issues that arise in remote locations. It is assumed that the medics utilizing this material are trained to a level of at least emergency medical technician or equivalent and are properly supplied and equipped. This is not a survival or 'do-it-yourself' manual. Rather it is a combination of several fields of medicine and treatment regiments that would apply to the Diver Medic's skill set in an isolated area. In many cases, the Diver Medic working in the remote areas of the world, isolated from definitive healthcare facilities or advanced emergency medical services, may be the only source of healthcare for those in his or her charge. As such, their medical mission will not be limited to providing just emergency care to those critically ill or injured. It will also involve dealing with common medical issues that are experienced on a day-to-day basis. The working environment could be an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico or the North Sea, an isolated installation in the Middle East, or a saturation habitat stored at 1000 fsw (300+meters). Not ideal conditions by any means. Evacuation or advanced assistance can be hours, if not days away. The information contained in this book is a presented in a straight forward, nuts-and-bolts way. The clinical issues are formatted in a, 'what it is, what causes it, what are the signs and symptoms, and how do we treat it' manner for ease of use. It is sincerely hoped that this practical guide will find its way into every Diver Medic's kit. and make life a little easier along the way.

This book, first published in 1985, deals with these problems and presents practical solutions for maps in library collections.
