Edward, I tried to start a thread on this a while ago, but didn't get as much info as I would have liked to from the WKPP guys probably cause there were the weiners whining about IWR. anyway, you remember the Sample Deco Dive thread with a dive to 225 for 20 I think? Well, if you remember, the deco ended with a slow ascent from 20feet. Some consider that to be one of the most crucial part of the deco. If you rush this, it's good to get back down to 30 or 40' and redo your scheduled stops. The faster you get back down the better - less bubbles will have a chance to form, and you WILL bubble if you rush the last 20'. 3 more cases: 1)Ommitted deco - surface asymptomatic You have no need to do anything 2)Ommitted deco - take a hit ***this is the answer that I didn't like. Hopefully we can find out a bit more about this. The answer I got was to go deep enough to shrink the bubble, then do some deco and surface. Thats probably good enough for the WKPP guys who understand deco. But I don't. I have no idea how deep to go, or how long to stay. 3)completed deco - take a hit This probably means you have a shunt. I think you should do the same as in the second case, but I'm not sure. Hope this starts some good discussions steve On Wed, 9 Feb 2000, Edward Watson wrote: > Hi > > When diving in remote locations, what are the current recommendations > on in-water recompression? > What is the best way to work out schedules and procedures should we > have to do this.I accept that in an ideal world we wouldn't consider > it, but we're more concerned with being able to sort out a problem on > site should it occur, than wait for outside help and exacerbate a > bend with a long delay. > > Thanks > > Fiona > > -- > Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'. > Send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to `techdiver-request@aquanaut.com'. > -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
