On the likelihood of decompression sickness [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal 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, 2014
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 application of our ...

ACUTE DECOMPRESSION SICKNESS

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, 1986
In 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 ...

Hyperbaric treatment for decompression sickness: current recommendations.

Undersea & Hyperbaric Medicine, 2019
Decompression sickness (DCS, "bends") is caused by formation of bubbles in tissues and/or blood when the sum of dissolved gas pressures exceeds ambient pressure (supersaturation).
