There were a number of lectures recorded at Rebreather Forum 3 (RF3) in May 2012. As they come on line, I’ll post them up here as a resource for all.

The second video lecture will be on diving fatalities and it was given by USA based Dr Petar J. Denoble of Divers Alert Network.
RECREATIONAL SCUBA DIVING FATALITIES BY NUMBERS
Dr Petar Denoble
10:30, Friday 18 May 2012, Boca Room III
“There can be risks associated with scuba diving that may lead to accidents. Analyzing these accidents, particularly fatal cases, is an important tool we have to identify and try to prevent potential problems to improve diving safety. Using statistical analyses to observe trends in scuba diving accidents, this talk explains the disparity between mishaps and fatalities, fatality rates amongst divers, and trigger events or disabling injuries that might contribute to fatalities.”
