Slow ascents on no-stop dives Limit bottom time for no-stop dives Use safety stops Use appropriate gases Use valid decompression tables If it doesn’t work, get treatment ©2003 HRL 11ġ8 Gases A lot of this is about gases Gas behavior Gases and gas mixtures Bubbles can be monitored with Doppler ultrasound.

Nitrogen, oxygen, enriched air, trimix How gases affect decompression Using the best mixes makes decompression more effective Gas properties Some physiology, tools, terms Practical methods ©2003 HRLġ6 Bubbles All this is to avoid or reduce bubbles.īubbles can form on many otherwise uneventful dives.

But it does not make it a “decompression dive”. Is this decompression? Don’t be silly! Of course it is, all dives involve decompression. Main benefit may be that diver has to control buoyancy and ascent rate to do it. ©2003 HRL 8ġ2 The Safety Stop Advised on all “no-stop” dives.Įspecially with dive computers. Decompression involves controlled ascent, and maybe stops Ascent rate is important it is part of it. Most divers do only no-stop diving No-stop diving does not require a stop in order to make the ascent.

decompression is not approached easily And it is discouraged The system is intimidating about deco But do it if you need it Risk is about equal for a full time no-stop dive and for a dive with decompression ©2003 HRL Virtually all dives involve decompression So we say “no-stop” instead of “no-decompression” In the U.S. The D word: Not taught in USA No need to fear it: Understand it! You decompress every time you dive Deco is getting a lot easier these days “Flat” tables are getting easier to use Dive computers provide lots of information Enriched air reduces the need for stops ©2003 HRLġ0 Decompression in American recreational diving To a diver, it means reduction of pressure in a controlled way How we say it ©2003 HRLĭivers (all divers) Recreational, Technical, Commercial Caisson and tunnel workers Hyperbaric medicine attendants Aviators and astronauts Workers in some industries Submariners, occasionally ©2003 HRL To an engineer, a reduction of pressure This can be what happens to: A flat tire on your car, or Going to a higher altitude, or Opening a bottle of champagne.

What is decompression, anyway? Who needs decompression? Why do we need to decompress? Then what is “no decompression”? Decompression is nothing to fear but something to respect ©2003 HRL
