Heart Attacks While Boating
"Jeff Rigby" wrote in message news  "NOYB" wrote in message news  Every boater who travels more than a couple of dozen miles from shore should consider carrying an Automatic External Defibrillator. They're available OTC from Sams club for under $1500...and are absolutely fool-proof to use. Anybody carrying a defibrilator? Any other good ideas to share? Aspirin!!!, for chest pains and can't get your breath, Aspirin 4 tablets. For other symptoms you might do more harm than good. An antihistamine would be good to have on board. If diving, 100% oxygen is the second best treatment for the bends, Oxygen is also the best first-line treatment for virtually any cardiovascular problem. |
