  • Title: [A method for evaluating the safety of decompression regimens for divers].
    Author: Volkov LK, Voĭtsekhovich IA, Liapin VM, Miasnikov AA.
    Journal: Voen Med Zh; 1996 Sep; 317(9):48-50, 80. PubMed ID: 8992750.
    Abstract:
    The authors offer a way of estimation of safety modes of decompression, based on definition of intensity of venous gas embolism (VGE) at each decompression and account of probability of illness of divers in series of tests. Intensity of VGE was determined with the help of ultrasonic gas bubbles Doppler radar. Comparative safety of standard modes of decompression of divers of the Navy was estimated, and also the modes, designed in accordance with mathematical model of decompression, offered by I. A. Voĭtsekhovich (1990), were done. The results testify, that use of ultrasonic radar for estimation of intensity of VGE at decompression and account of average and maximum probability of decompression illness in series of tests of modes permit to receive the comparative characteristic of safety of modes at small number of decompressions.
