Acute Effects on the Human Peripheral Blood Transcriptome of Decompression Sickness Secondary to Scuba 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.

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.

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.

Patent Foramen Ovale—A Not So Innocuous Septal Atrial Defect in Adults

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common congenital atrial septal defect with an incidence of 15–35% in the adult population. The development of the interatrial septum is a process that begins in the fourth gestational week and is completed only after ...

Livedo Racemosa – The Pathophysiology of Decompression-Associated Cutis Marmorata and Right/Left Shunt

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Decompression sickness and arterial gas embolism, collectively known as decompression illness (DCI), are serious medical conditions that can result from compressed gas diving. DCI can present with a wide range of physiologic and neurologic symptoms.

Abdominal decompression for abdominal compartment syndrome in critically ill patients: a retrospective study [PDF]

, 2010
Background. The abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) refers to organ dysfunction that may occur as a result of increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Successful management may require abdominal decompression and temporary abdominal closure (TAC).

Complete Recovery of an Iatrogenic Venous Gaseous Embolism (VGE) Clinical Presentation Thanks to a Timely Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Treatment

Oxygen, 2022
Gas embolism is a potentially fatal occurrence in which bubbles are introduced into the arterial/venous circulation. A multifocal ischemia could be the life-threatening scenario of that and occurring after diving-related activities, or pulmonary ...
