It was inststed by my self and the Course director that the diver should be taken on a 50m treatment, but the chamber attendants refuse to see this and reconed that to get the PPO2 up was a better option. There attitude was very much - What do you know about chamber treatment - were in charge, we call the shots. I understand there has been a considerable amount of back peedling since the enquiries that I mentioned earlier. I must add, there are no chmaber's in this country rigged for Trimix. I know the navy does 90m in there chamber on air - I believe as part of there working dive built ups.>>> I find it hard to belive that a multiplace hyperbaric chamber anywhere in the civilized world does no know how to conduct a proper USN Treatment Table 6 or 6a schedule, let alone a COMEX 30. It is rare to find one that can do a USN TT 8 (copy from the Royal Navy set) which is done to depth of relief on appropriate gases. This one involves significant life support and saturation treatment support. I might suggest that if you guys are gonna keep on doing these dives that you get your local hyperbaric chamber people trained in how to treat these types of cases, before you get back in the water.
