On the likelihood of decompression sickness
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1984 The occurrence of decompression sickness in animals and humans is characterized by the extreme variability of individual response. Nevertheless, models and analyses of decompression results have generally used a critical value approach to separate safe and unsafe decompression procedures.

Decompression and Decompression Sickness
Comprehensive Physiology, 2014Abstract The ever‐present desire of humankind to explore new limits introduced us to the syndrome of decompression sickness (DCS). This broad overview of DCS is aimed at its pathophysiology and basics of therapeutic strategies. After a brief explanation of decompression theory, historical vignettes will serve to inform the practical ...

The Lancet, 1974
Abstract The long-standing concept of the bubble acting solely as a mechanical cause of decompression sickness, by tissue distortion or as an embolus, has lately been challenged, and recognition of surface activity at the blood/gas interface of the intravascular bubble has initiated a reconsideration of possible disease processes.

Decompression Sickness: An Update
The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1986In brief: Until 20 years ago, the physical phenomenon of bubbling was the primary consideration in decompression sickness (DCS). Now the physiological aspects of DCS and the physiochemical states that lead to bubbling are better understood. This paper discusses four important developments in the study of DCS: (1) the recognition of the importance of ...

Decompression sickness: A Medical emergency
Resuscitation, 1981Abstract Our clinical experience on the use of decompression chamber and intensive care in the treatment of decompression sickness in 64 patients is reported. The results obtained in this study allow the formulation of some considerations regarding the evaluation of type of patients; the effect of delay upon prognosis; the use of particular schedules
