That's one handed administration of positive pressure 02 vs. two-handed EAR. You do know what EAR is? Now read it again, there's a good boy. And do try to pay attention this time. And remember this. If you want to join disparate statements of mine together to create contradictions, you have to be able to hold more than one thought in your head at one time and you also have to understand the argument you are trying to refute, both of these things being beyond your meagre abilities, I wonder why you even bother. > So thats hold the regulator in the mouth, seal the exhaust and purge the >regulator, seal the nose, and apply a neck extension all with one hand - >you've either got massive tango hands or you dive with pin heads, or you >haven't really done it at all........ I dout one would need to seal the exhausts completely. And I want to know whether it's necessary to seal the nostrils. > Have you ACTUALLY tried it in the water billy, before you give us your >words of wisdom, you'll find its a bit different to sitting in front of a >PC. No, I haven't tried it in the water. You are seeing me figure the process out. Then I will try it. Then if I ever need to use it, I will be able to. You obviously missed (or failed to understand) the first part of the thread where two paramedics said it mustn't be done - one must accept the fact that the 02 we carry can't be administered to a non-breathing victim in the water. I disputed that. Do try to keep up, Grant. Or you'll have to go back to the slow list. You know.
