I run swiftwater rescue courses in Germany and Austria and questions often come up about how useful being able to do CPR is anyway. This has also been a forum topic a few times so I would like paddlers to help me get some informed statistics for the use of CPR in Paddlesports.
If you have ever had to perform CPR on the river please would you take the time to fill out a questionaire, regardless of the outcome.
All questionaires will be treated confidentially. This is not an online survey and requires that the questionaire is downloaded before it can be emailed, faxed or posted back to me. The questionaire is availible from:
www.swiftwaterrescue.at/Content/Rescue_CPR
A German Langauge form is avalible from this link:

Many thanks in advance, results will be posted on the same webpage.
Yours,
