No, you're thinking of the
"Life-Support-system-is-irrelevant-find-yourself-downcurrent-of-the-boat-300
-miles-from-civilization-surrounded-by-Galapagos-Sharks-at-Dusk-and-should'v
e-had-the-chase-boat-ready-before-the-dive-but-didn't-cause-you-made-the-mis
take-of-thinking-110-feet-wasn't-deep" manuver.

(we refer to it as the "LSSIIFYDOTB3MFCSBGADASHTCBRBTDBDCYMTMOT1FWD"
manuver, for short)

Actually, that's quite a different response for several reasons:

1) Symptom onset does occur, so it is true IWR
2) The IWR portion lasts only 20 minutes, and doesn't help much.
3) Symptoms resolve after 15 minutes of surface-O2, & lots of hydration
4) The proceedure also involves 8 hours of surface O2 and three days of
sailing against a storm.

Although this procedure has proven 100% successful, it is rather specific to
the circumstances, and is among the least pleasant approaches to managing
bends symptoms in remote localities.

Aloha,
Rich
