Diving Medicine

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1987
This article orients the practicing physician to the physical and physiologic basis for the more common medical problems encountered in diving, discusses the common presenting manifestations for these disorders, and provides a framework for their treatment. Medical fitness for diving is also briefly addressed.

Diving emergencies

Resuscitation, 2003
Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus (SCUBA) diving popularity is increasing tremendously, reaching a total of 9 million people in the US during 2001, and 50,000 in the UK in 1985. Over the past 10 years, new advances, equipment improvements, and improved diver education have made SCUBA diving safer and more enjoyable. Most diving injuries are

Diving Mammals

Comprehensive Physiology, 2011
AbstractThe ability of diving mammals to forage at depth on a breath hold of air is dependent on gas exchange, both in the lung and in peripheral tissues. Anatomical and physiological adaptations in the respiratory system, cardiovascular system, blood and peripheral tissues contribute to the remarkable breath‐hold capacities of these animals.

Diving Medicine

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1984
This discussion focuses on the several pressure-related syndromes that are peculiar to diving and that are collectively known as dysbarism. These include barotrauma of descent, barotrauma of ascent, and air embolism. Also considered are nitrogen narcosis and decompression sickness.

Diving Medicine

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
Although the diving community attempts to train and educate its members with regard to the dangers of the deep, there are still a significant number of individuals each year who need treatment for painful and life-threatening illness incurred as a result of the dive.

Diving injuries

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1984
This is a collective review about the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of SCUBA and diving injuries by the emergency physician. These injuries can be classified into those resulting from the toxic effects of the inhaled gas, from the pressure changes in the water and gas mixture while diving, and from decompression sickness.

Diving Medicine

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2014
Exposure to the undersea environment has unique effects on normal physiology and can result in unique disorders that require an understanding of the effects of pressure and inert gas supersaturation on organ function and knowledge of the appropriate therapies, which can include recompression in a hyperbaric chamber. The effects of Boyle's law result in

Diving and Dive Computer History

2018
Dive computers are useful tools across recreational and technical diving. They are supplanting traditional dive tables and their use is growing as diving research advances. Able to process depth-time readings in fractions of a second, modern dive computers routinely estimate hypothetical dissolved gas loadings, bubble buildup, ascent and descent rates,

[Diving Accidents].

Pneumologie (Stuttgart, Germany), 2017
Decompression injuries occur on account of the special hyperbaric effects during the emerge phase and require superior therapeutic knowledge. Vitally important is emergency treatment with high concentrated oxygen at an early stage. Sever decompression injuries require oxygenation in a hyperbaric treatment chamber.
