Oxygenation Performance of Different Non-Invasive Devices for Treatment of Decompression Illness and Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Study Objective: Application of high concentrations of oxygen to increase oxygen partial pressure (pO2) is the most important treatment for patients with carbon monoxide intoxication or divers with suspected decompression illness.

Decompression illness: a comprehensive overview. [PDF]
Diving Hyperb MedDecompression illness is a collective term for two maladies (decompression sickness [DCS] and arterial gas embolism [AGE]) that may arise during or after surfacing from compressed gas diving. Bubbles are the presumed primary vector of injury in both disorders, but the respective sources of bubbles are distinct.

Anton's syndrome as a presentation of decompression illness. [PDF]
Diving Hyperb Med, 2017 We present a case of a patient with Anton’s syndrome due to decompression illness (DCI) after recreational scuba diving. Visual anosognosia, or denial of loss of vision, which is associated with lack of awareness regarding visual loss in the setting of cortical blindness, is known as Anton’s syndrome (also termed Anton-Babinski syndrome).

A hypothesis-driven pulmonary–cerebral mechanistic framework of neurological decompression illness in repetitive breath-hold diving [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyThis hypothesis-driven narrative review synthesizes physiological, clinical, and neuroimaging evidence to advance an integrated pulmonary–cerebral framework for decompression illness (DCI) in repetitive breath-hold diving.

Cutis marmorata as a manifestation of decompression illness
Emergency Care Journal, 2020 We present imagines of skin lesions due to a decompression illness (known as cutis marmorata). These alterations are usually transient, but they could be a warning sign of a more severe manifestation of decompression illness.

Cardiac arrest during a diving session: A case report and differential diagnosis
Clinical Case Reports, 2022 We report a case of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest occurred in a 61‐year‐old recreational female diver. After resuscitation, the patient was referred to the hospital.

Tetranomial decompression sickness model using serious, mild, marginal, and non-event outcomes
Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020 Decompression sickness (DCS) is a condition resulting from reductions in ambient pressure, causing inert gas bubbles in tissues. This work focuses on hyperbaric exposures, specifically DCS resulting from underwater diving.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Decompression sickness (DCS) develops due to inert gas bubble formation in bodily tissues and in the circulation, leading to a wide range of potentially serious clinical manifestations. Its pathophysiology remains incompletely understood.

Effects of different simulated submarine escape depths by free ascent in animal models
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Objective: If a damaged submarine cannot be rescued in time, it is necessary to carry out a submarine escape by free ascent. Decompression illness is the greatest threat to the safety of submariners.
