What
is the DAN AED for Aquatic Emergencies Provider program?
This course represents entry-level training designed to
educate the general diving (and qualified non-diving) public
to better recognize the warning signs of Sudden Cardiac
Arrest and administer first aid using Basic Life Support
techniques and Automated External Defibrillators while activating
the local emergency medical services, (EMS) and / or arranging
for evacuation to the nearest appropriate medical facility.
* In the United States, sudden cardiac arrest claims more
than 225,000 to 250,000 lives a year, according to the American
Heart Association. * Ninety three percent of the people
involved in a submersion incident die from cardiac arrest.
Most common cause of sudden cardiac arrest is ventricular
fibrillation. There are several causes of ventricular fibrillation
including: * Cardiovascular disease * Drowning * Hypothermia
* Electrical shock The only definitive treatment for ventricular
fibrillation is defibrillation. This course teaches lay-providers
to use an automated external defibrillator to defibrillate
a fibrillating heart and restore a normal rhythm.
