The physiology and pathophysiology of the hyperbaric and diving environments.
HUMAN EXPOSURE to the challenges of the underwater world has been traced back thousands of years (e.g., the diving women of Japan). However, the last century has seen an acceleration of activities with disparate foci on the “Silent World.” The variety and beauty of marine life attract growing numbers of recreational divers, and the pressing need for exploitation of new energy sources has led to...
متن کاملThe physiology and pathophysiology of human breath-hold diving.
This is a brief overview of physiological reactions, limitations, and pathophysiological mechanisms associated with human breath-hold diving. Breath-hold duration and ability to withstand compression at depth are the two main challenges that have been overcome to an amazing degree as evidenced by the current world records in breath-hold duration at 10:12 min and depth of 214 m. The quest for ev...

Exposure to the underwater environment for recreational or occupational purposes is increasing. Approximately 7 million divers are active worldwide and 500,000 more are training every year. Diving related illnesses are consequently an increasingly common clinical problem with over 1000 cases of decompression illness reported annually in the USA alone. Divers are exposed to a number of physiolog...
