Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underwater Physiology is a collection of papers that deals with the physiologically limiting effects of undersea, high pressure exposure ranging from fundamental biological reactions, through integration of physiological stresses, and to limits actually experienced in deep diving. Papers discuss oxygen, the mechanisms of toxicity, and the effects of oxygen on cells and systems such as its pathological and physiological influences in the neurosensory ocular tissue. Other papers discuss the physical effects of pressure and gases on cellular function, protein structure, and the possibility of alleviating symptoms through the administration of drugs. Tests in mice show that various gases exhibit qualitative and semi-quantitative differences in the characteristics of sickness, reactions to hypoxia, and the time before the onset of symptoms. A computer, programmed for nonlinear gas transfer and other variables, running in real time can compute directly from the breathing mixture and provide a real time solution to decompression sickness under various conditions. A combined therapeutic approach, recompression and dextran (an effective lipemic clearing agent) should be capable of treating decompression sickness in humans. Other papers investigate the influence of inert gases and pressure on the central nervous system, as well as, situations in undersea and manned chamber operations. This collection can prove valuable for physiologists, biochemists, cellular biologists, and researchers involved in deep sea diving.

This book was released on with total page 1066 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 1,000 total pages .... INTRODUCTION 1-1.1 Purpose. This chapter provides a general history of the development of military diving operations. 1-1.2 Scope. This chapter outlines the hard work and dedication of a number of individuals who were pioneers in the development of diving technology. As with any endeavor, it is important to build on the discoveries of our predecessors and not repeat mistakes of the past. 1-1.3 Role of the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Navy is a leader in the development of modern diving and underwater operations. The general requirements of national defense and the specific requirements of underwater reconnaissance, demolition, ordnance disposal, construction, ship maintenance, search, rescue and salvage operations repeatedly give impetus to training and development. Navy diving is no longer limited to tactical combat operations, wartime salvage, and submarine sinkings. Fleet diving has become increasingly important and diversified since World War II. A major part of the diving mission is inspecting and repairing naval vessels to minimize downtime and the need for dry-docking. Other aspects of fleet diving include recovering practice and research torpedoes, installing and repairing underwater electronic arrays, underwater construction, and locating and recovering downed aircraft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) therapy from the molecular biology perspective and its clinical applications, including molecular mechanisms of HBO’s positive effect on cellular function in hypoxic tissues. HBO is a therapeutic tool that enhances oxygen supply to hypoxic tissues and improves wound healing/tissue remodeling. Currently HBO therapy is applied to a wide range of clinical cases, which include not only acute hypoxic diseases but also many chronic and refractory diseases involving tissue hypoxia or intractable infection. HBO therapy is a well-recognized regimen for many researchers and clinicians. The first half of the book outlines basic molecular mechanisms of HBO and their potential applications for clinical activities, while the second half describes the rationale behind introducing HBO therapy into suitable clinical cases and presents successful clinical reports. It is primarily written for HBO clinicians, physiologists and basic research scientists, but is also of interest to clinicians who have an interest in this field considering introducing HBO therapy.

Download or read book Diving Decompression written by Source Wikipedia and published by University-Press.org. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 24. Chapters: Altitude diving, Ascending and descending (diving), Bottom time, Decompression (diving), Decompression sickness, Diving chamber, In-water recompression, Ratio decompression, Saturation diving. Excerpt: The decompression of a diver is the reduction in ambient pressure experienced by the diver during ascent, and also the process of elimination of dissolved inert gases from the diver's body, which occurs both during the actual ascent, during pauses in the ascent known as decompression stops, and after surfacing, until either the gas concentrations reach equilibrium, or another dive is started. When a diver descends in the water the hydrostatic pressure, and therefore the ambient pressure, rises. Breathing gas is supplied at the same pressure as the surrounding water, and some of this gas dissolves into the diver's blood, and is transferred by the blood circulation to other tissues. Inert gas continues to be taken up until the gas dissolved in the diver is in a state of equilibrium with the breathing gas in the diver's lungs, (see: "Saturation diving"), or the diver moves up in the water and reduces the ambient pressure of the breathing gas until the inert gases dissolved in the tissues are at a higher concentration than the equilibrium state, and start diffusing out again. Divers breathing gas at high pressure may need to do decompression stops, but a diver who only breathes gas at atmospheric pressure when free-diving, does not usually need to do decompression stops. However, it is possible to get taravana, thought to be a form of decompression sickness, from repetitive deep free-diving with short surface intervals. Divers who only use a snorkel near the surface or use an atmospheric diving suit will not need to decompress. If the ambient pressure is reduced too quickly and to a pressure sufficiently low compared to...
