A validation of abstracted dive profiles relayed via the Argos satellite system: a case study of a loggerhead turtle

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2022
Satellite telemetry devices can record movement data of animals along with the environmental data. Such data are relayed remotely via satellite systems, but are constrained by the limited bandwidth availability.

Sport as Therapy

open access: yesDeutsche Zeitschrift für Sportmedizin, 2021
Introduction: Sufficient hydration of a SCUBA diver is important to reduce the risk of decompression sickness. Mechanisms of fluid loss in diving and immersion are known, but not quantified. We aimed at relating dive profiles and individual parameters to

Effect of a Single Simulated 500 m Saturation Dive on Lung Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Whether deep saturation diving causes injury to lung function remains controversial and the mechanism is unclear. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 500 m simulated single saturation dive on lung function.Methods: A ...

Tirofiban, a Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Antagonist, Has a Protective Effect on Decompression Sickness in Rats: Is the Crosstalk Between Platelet and Leukocytes Essential?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
In its severest forms, decompression sickness (DCS) may extend systemically and/or induce severe neurological deficits, including paralysis or even death.

Blood oxygen depletion is independent of dive function in a deep diving vertebrate, the northern elephant seal. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Although energetics is fundamental to animal ecology, traditional methods of determining metabolic rate are neither direct nor instantaneous. Recently, continuous blood oxygen (O2) measurements were used to assess energy expenditure in diving elephant ...

Demonstration by Infra-Red Imaging of a Temperature Control Defect in a Decompression Sickness Model Testing Minocycline

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The prevention, prognosis and resolution of decompression sickness (DCS) are not satisfactory. The etiology of DCS has highlighted thrombotic and inflammatory phenomena that could cause severe neurological disorders or even death.
