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

Decompression sickness in Ireland-a review
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1993In the last decade there has been an increase in the incidence of decompression sickness in Ireland. The modern diver, equipped with specially developed diving equipment, is exposed to abnormal physiological conditions. This has resulted in a spectrum of medical conditions, which need to be recognised, diagnosed and treated.

Acclimation to decompression sickness in rats
Journal of Applied Physiology, 2010Protection against decompression sickness (DCS) by acclimation to hyperbaric decompression has been hypothesized but never proven. We exposed rats to acclimation dives followed by a stressful “test” dive to determine whether acclimation occurred. Experiments were divided into two phases.

Influence of decompression sickness on vasocontraction of isolated rat vessels.
Journal of applied physiology, 2016Studies conducted in divers indicate that endothelium function is impaired following a dive even without decompression sickness (DCS). Our previous experiment conducted on rat isolated vessels showed no differences in endothelium-dependent vasodilation ...

Inner ear decompression sickness
The Laryngoscope, 1976AbstractWith recent increases in commercial, military, and sport diving to deeper depths, inner ear injuries during such exposures have been encountered more frequently and noted during several phases of diving: during compression, at stable deep depths, with excessive noise exposure in diving, and during decompression.

Decompression Sickness in a Private Pilot
Southern Medical Journal, 1995Although safe, civil aviation can result in some unique medical problems. Most physicians are not familiar with aviation-related medical problems. One such problem, decompression sickness, is not mentioned in most medical texts, and is not included in most medical school instruction.

Hypobaric decompression sickness
Emergency Medicine, 1995AbstractThe Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) mimics emergency aircraft decompression and hypoxia in a chamber decompressed over two to six minutes to a simulated altitude of 25,000 feet (7500m). Air crews in the chamber are trained to use oxygen apparatus including positive pressure breathing systems under these conditions.
