ಸುರಕ್ಷತೆ

ಪ್ರತಿ ಡೈವ್‌ನಿಂದ ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತವಾಗಿ ಮನೆಗೆ ಹಿಂತಿರುಗಿ.

ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್‌ಫಿಶಿಂಗ್ ಒಂದು ಉಸಿರು ಹಿಡಿಯುವ ಕ್ರೀಡೆ, ಮತ್ತು ಸಮುದ್ರವು ಮೊಟಕುಗಳನ್ನು ಮನ್ನಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಕೆಳಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬ ಸ್ಪಿಯರೊ ತಿಳಿದಿರಬೇಕಾದ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ, ವ್ಯಾಪಕವಾಗಿ ಕಲಿಸಲಾಗುವ ಸುರಕ್ಷತಾ ಜ್ಞಾನ ಇದೆ, ನಂತರ ಪ್ರತಿ ದೇಶದ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ಮೀನುಗಾರಿಕೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸಾಗರ ಪ್ರಾಧಿಕಾರಗಳ ಮಾಹಿತಿ ನೀಡಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಇದನ್ನು ಓದಿ, ನಂತರ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಮಿತಿಗಳನ್ನು ತಳ್ಳುವ ಮೊದಲು ಸರಿಯಾದ ತರಬೇತಿ ಪಡೆಯಿರಿ.

ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಮಾರ್ಗದರ್ಶನ

ಮೂಲ ತತ್ತ್ವಗಳು

ಈ ತತ್ತ್ವಗಳು ಎಲ್ಲೆಡೆ ಅನ್ವಯಿಸುತ್ತವೆ ಮತ್ತು ಯಾವುದೇ ದೇಶಕ್ಕೆ ನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟವಲ್ಲ. ಮೊದಲ ಮೂರು ಐಚ್ಛಿಕವಲ್ಲ — ಅವು ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಡೈವ್ ಮತ್ತು ಮಾರಣಾಂತಿಕ ಡೈವ್ ನಡುವಿನ ವ್ಯತ್ಯಾಸ.

ನಿರ್ಣಾಯಕ

ಅನುಭವಿ ಡೈವರ್‌ಗಳನ್ನು ಹೊಡೆಯುವ ಅಪಾಯ

ಆಳವಿಲ್ಲದ ನೀರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಮೂರ್ಛೆ

ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್‌ಫಿಶಿಂಗ್ ಮರಣಗಳಿಗೆ ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಕಾರಣ. ಮೇಲೆ ಬರುವ ದಾರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ, ಒತ್ತಡ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾಗುವಾಗ ನಿಮ್ಮ ರಕ್ತದ ಆಮ್ಲಜನಕ ಪ್ರಜ್ಞೆ ಉಳಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಅಗತ್ಯ ಮಟ್ಟಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾಗಬಹುದು — ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಅಥವಾ ಯಾವ ಎಚ್ಚರಿಕೆಯೂ ಇಲ್ಲದೆ. ಉಸಿರು ಹಿಡಿತವನ್ನು ಮಿತಿಗೆ ತಳ್ಳಬೇಡಿ, ಮತ್ತು ಎಂದಿಗೂ ಒಂಟಿಯಾಗಿ ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿ.

ನಿರ್ಣಾಯಕ

ಒಬ್ಬರು ಮೇಲೆ, ಒಬ್ಬರು ಕೆಳಗೆ

ಒಬ್ಬರು-ಮೇಲೆ / ಒಬ್ಬರು-ಕೆಳಗೆ ಜೊತೆಗಾರ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥೆ

ಜೋಡಿಯಾಗಿ ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡಿ ಮತ್ತು ಪಾಳಿ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಿ: ಒಬ್ಬ ಡೈವರ್ ಕೆಳಗೆ ಹೋಗುವಾಗ ಮತ್ತೊಬ್ಬರು ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಯಿಂದ ಸಕ್ರಿಯವಾಗಿ ಗಮನಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ, ಸಹಾಯ ಮಾಡಲು ಸಿದ್ಧರಾಗಿರುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಅವರು ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಗೆ ಬಂದ ನಂತರ ಕನಿಷ್ಠ 30 ಸೆಕೆಂಡ್ ಗಮನಿಸುತ್ತಿರಿ — ಮೂರ್ಛೆ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅಥವಾ ಅದರ ನಂತರ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ.

ನಿರ್ಣಾಯಕ

ಮಾತಾಡುವಂತಿಲ್ಲ

ಎಂದಿಗೂ ಒಂಟಿಯಾಗಿ ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿ

ಮೂರ್ಛೆಯಿಂದ ಬದುಕಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯ ಕೇವಲ ಯಾರಾದರೂ ಇದ್ದರೆ ಮಾತ್ರ — ಸೆಕೆಂಡುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಮ್ಮ ವಾಯುಮಾರ್ಗ ನೀರಿನಿಂದ ಮೇಲಕ್ಕೆ ಎತ್ತಲು. ಯಾವ ಮೀನೂ ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಯೋಗ್ಯವಲ್ಲ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ತ್ವರಿತವಾಗಿ ಮೇಲಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಲು ಸಿದ್ಧರಾಗಿರಿ

ತೂಕ ಮತ್ತು ತೂಕ-ಪಟ್ಟಿ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆ

ನೀವು ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಯಲ್ಲಿ ತೇಲಿ ಸುಮಾರು 10 ಮೀ ಎತ್ತರದಿಂದ ತನ್ನಿಂತಾನೇ ತೇಲಿ ಬರುವಂತೆ ತೂಕ ಹೊಂದಿಸಿ. ಹೊರಮುಖವಾಗಿ ತ್ವರಿತ-ಬಿಡುಗಡೆ ಬಕಲ್ ಧರಿಸಿ, ಮತ್ತು ತುರ್ತುಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ವಯಂಚಾಲಿತವಾಗಿ ಆಗುವಂತೆ ಪಟ್ಟಿ ತೆಗೆಯುವ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ ಮಾಡಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ಅವರಿಗೆ ನೀರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ತಲೆ ಕಾಣಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ

ದೋಣಿ-ಸಂಚಾರ ಜಾಗೃತಿ

ಯಾವಾಗಲೂ ಡೈವ್ ಫ್ಲ್ಯಾಗ್ ಹಾರಿಸಿ ಅಥವಾ ಮೇಲ್ಮೈ ಗುರುತು ಬ್ಯೂ (SMB) ಎಳೆಯಿರಿ, ಅದರ ಸಮೀಪ ಉಳಿಯಿರಿ, ಮತ್ತು ದೋಣಿಗಳಿಗೆ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕಾಣಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಊಹಿಸಿ. ಒಂದು ಕೈ ಮೇಲೆ ಎತ್ತಿ ಮೇಲ್ಮೈಗೆ ಬನ್ನಿ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್‌ಗನ್ ಅನ್‌ಲೋಡ್ ಮಾಡಿ ಕೆಳಗೆ ತೋರಿಸಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ನೀರಿಗೆ ಇಳಿಯುವ ಮೊದಲು ತಿಳಿಯಿರಿ

ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ತುರ್ತು ಮತ್ತು ಕೋಸ್ಟ್-ಗಾರ್ಡ್ ಸಂಪರ್ಕಗಳು

ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡುವ ಮೊದಲು ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ತುರ್ತು ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ ಮತ್ತು ಕೋಸ್ಟ್ ಗಾರ್ಡ್ / ಸಾಗರ ರಕ್ಷಣಾ ಸಂಪರ್ಕ ಉಳಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿ. ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ಮೀನುಗಾರಿಕೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸಾಗರ ಪ್ರಾಧಿಕಾರಗಳು ನಿಯಂತ್ರಕ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳಿಗಾಗಿ — ನಿಮ್ಮ ನಿಖರ ಸ್ಥಳಕ್ಕೆ ತುರ್ತು ಸಂಖ್ಯೆಗಳನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿ ಹುಡುಕಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ನಿಮ್ಮ ದೇಹವನ್ನು ಮೋಸ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿ

ಹೈಪರ್‌ವೆಂಟಿಲೇಟ್ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿ

ಡೈವ್‌ಗೆ ಮೊದಲು ಅತಿಯಾಗಿ ಉಸಿರಾಡುವುದು ನಿಮ್ಮ CO₂ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡುತ್ತದೆ ಮತ್ತು ಉಸಿರಾಡಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಪ್ರಚೋದನೆ ತೆಗೆದುಹಾಕುತ್ತದೆ — ಆಮ್ಲಜನಕ ಸೇರಿಸದೆ. ಆ ವಿಳಂಬಿತ ಎಚ್ಚರಿಕೆಯೇ ಮೂರ್ಛೆಗೆ ಕಾರಣ. ಶಾಂತವಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತು ಮೃದುವಾಗಿ ಉಸಿರಾಡಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ನೀವು ಮಾಡುವುದಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ತರಬೇತಿ ಪಡೆಯಿರಿ

ನಿಮ್ಮ ಆಳ, ಸಮಯ ಮತ್ತು ತರಬೇತಿಯನ್ನು ಗೌರವಿಸಿ

ಸರಿಯಾದ ಸೂಚನೆಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರ ನಿಧಾನವಾಗಿ ಆಳ ಮತ್ತು ತಳದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಮಯ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸಿ. ನಿಮ್ಮ ಅಹಂಕಾರ ಅಥವಾ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಉತ್ತಮ ದಿನವನ್ನಲ್ಲ, ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಮಾಣಪತ್ರ ಮತ್ತು ಪ್ರಸ್ತುತ ತಂದ್ರಸ್ಥಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ಸಮುದ್ರ ಷರತ್ತುಗಳನ್ನು ನಿರ್ಧರಿಸುತ್ತದೆ

ಪರಿಸ್ಥಿತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಿ ಮತ್ತು ಮೆಲ್ಲನೆ ಸಮಾನ ಒತ್ತಡ ಮಾಡಿ

ಡೈವ್‌ಗೆ ಮೊದಲು ಮತ್ತು ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಲೆ, ಪ್ರವಾಹ, ಗೋಚರತೆ ಮತ್ತು ಉಬ್ಬರವಿಳಿತ ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಿ. ಆರಂಭದಲ್ಲಿ ಮತ್ತು ಆಗಾಗ ಸಮಾನ ಒತ್ತಡ ಮಾಡಿ; ಎಂದಿಗೂ ಒತ್ತಾಯ ಮಾಡಬೇಡಿ. ಸಮಾನ ಒತ್ತಡ ಮಾಡಲಾಗದಿದ್ದರೆ, ಇಳಿಯಲು ರದ್ದು ಮಾಡಿ.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ

ಯಶಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ಸ್ವಯಂ ಸಿದ್ಧಪಡಿಸಿ

ವಿಶ್ರಾಂತಿ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಿ, ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯಿರಿ ಮತ್ತು ಯೋಜನೆ ಯಾರಿಗಾದರೂ ತಿಳಿಸಿ

ಆಯಾಸ, ನಿರ್ಜಲೀಕರಣ, ಮದ್ಯ ಮತ್ತು ಚಳಿ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಮೂರ್ಛೆ ಅಪಾಯ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸುತ್ತವೆ. ವಿಶ್ರಾಂತಿ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಿ, ನೀರು ಕುಡಿಯಿರಿ, ಬೆಚ್ಚಗಿರಿ, ಮತ್ತು ಯೋಜನೆ ಮತ್ತು ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿತ ಮರಳುವ ಸಮಯ ದಡದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಯಾರಿಗಾದರೂ ತಿಳಿಸಿ.

ಮೂಲ ದತ್ತಾಂಶ

ದೇಶದಿಂದ ದೇಶಕ್ಕೆ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ಸಂಪರ್ಕಗಳು

ಇವು ಪ್ರತಿ ದೇಶದ ನಿಯಂತ್ರಣಗಳಿಂದ ನಾವು ಹೊಂದಿರುವ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ಮೀನುಗಾರಿಕೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸಾಗರ ಪ್ರಾಧಿಕಾರಗಳಾಗಿವೆ — ಆ ದೇಶದ ದಾಖಲೆಯಿಂದ ನೇರವಾಗಿ ತೆಗೆಯಲಾಗಿದೆ, ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಲಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಅಥವಾ ಕಲ್ಪಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿಲ್ಲ. ಪರವಾನಗಿ, ಋತುಮಾನ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ನಿಯಮಗಳನ್ನು ದೃಢಪಡಿಸಲು ಅವರೇ ಸರಿಯಾದ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿಗಳು.

ಇವು ತುರ್ತು ಸೇವೆಗಳಲ್ಲ. ತುರ್ತು ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ, ನಿಮ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ತುರ್ತು ಸಂಖ್ಯೆ ಅಥವಾ ನೀವಿರುವ ಸ್ಥಳದ ಕೋಸ್ಟ್ ಗಾರ್ಡ್‌ಗೆ ಕರೆ ಮಾಡಿ — ಡೈವ್ ಮಾಡುವ ಮೊದಲು ಇವನ್ನು ಸ್ಥಳೀಯವಾಗಿ ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಿ.

ಫೈಲ್‌ನಲ್ಲಿ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ಸಂಪರ್ಕಗಳನ್ನು ಹೊಂದಿರುವ 221 / 221 ದೇಶಗಳನ್ನು ತೋರಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ
