  2. SCOPE • Background • Methods • Results • Conclusion

  3. Background • US Navy Decompression Practices • Pioneers • Followed globally • Recreational Divers • Recompression Therapy • Technical divers

  4. Methods • SALVEX 2011 • USNS Salvage • INS Nireekshak • Off Port Blair: Jan 2011 • Indian Clearance Divers in US Deco Practices • 42 MSW / 140 FSW • Surface Supported Dive in KMB MK 17B

  5. SALVEX 2011

  6. SALVEX 2011

  7. Results • Surfaced directly • Place in Chamber in 3.5 minutes • Recompressed to 40 FSW (~12 MSW) • Stoppage of 11 Min @ 40 FSW • 1min 20 sec ascent to Surface on O2

  8. Conclusion • Advantages of Sur DO2 • Shorter exposure in water • Hypothermia prevention • Decreased Marine Anima Injury • Less chance of “Blow up” • Safety from Sea conditions • Decreased Decompression time • Controlled Decompression in chamber

  9. Conclusion • Disadvantages of Sur DO2 • Extensive resources • Chamber • Manpower • Oxygen requirements • Synchronised timings • Increased risk of DCS • Application in our set up?
