30 min breath hold + save lives?
Quote:
I was wondering if you were to inject yourself with this could you have a breath hold of 30 min? hahahah i cant see this as being safe at all But in all seriousness, do you guys think this could help with blackouts that happen at depth or in cases where you want to get oxygen to a victim of swb?

Re: 30 min breath hold + save lives?
That is super neat. That would certainly make CPR much more effective if used properly. I don't think this is for the masses, as most people would fumble around for a vein instead of continuing with CPR, and the victim would be worse off for the wait.
Most SWB victims would have lungs filled with water, I'd imagine? I'm not sure how hard it is to get the water out during CPR so that the CPR can be effective at getting oxygen into the blood. |

sorry I don't know what a PIC is. but are you talking about having a continuous supply running through your blood without breathing?
