What is a decompression stop?

The decompression stop is a pause in a diving output that allows the body to express melted blood gases. Without stopping decompression, these gases would spread, turned into bubbles and cause decompression disease. Stopping decompression is a critical part of the safe diving of deep water, while the length and depth of such stops vary depending on the depth and length of the dive. Usually more than one decompression stops are needed. For every 30 feet (10 meters), another "atmosphere of pressure" is added, which means that someone 60 feet (20 meters) below experiences the equivalent of three times the pressure on the sea level. At some point, the pressure becomes so intense that the human body cannot survive, although no one has determined the exact point in which someone would die of pressure. On the way to the bottom of the gases in the human body, let yourself into the blood, due to huge pressure. If the diver suddenly rises, the gases are spreading so fast that the body cannot safely eliminate gas and the diver develops decompression disease. Therefore divers holdIt eats a series of decompression to allow their bodies to acclimat the pressure. Every time the decompression decompression is stopped, the diver normally breathes, allowing me to express dissolved gases.

Many divers use computer software to calculate their decompression stops, although it is also possible to manually perform mathematics. Since most people are diving with a friend or a group for security reasons, people usually perform their calculations separately and then compare to confirm that they have introduced a safe decompression stop. At regular diving sites, there may even be indicate places for decompression stops and stop decompression can even have a decompression quarrel so that the diver rests throughout the stop.

decompression stops can sometimes be shortened by breathing a special gas formulation rich in oxygen known as "decompression gas" or "decoGas. ". Breathing gas with high oxygen level is dangerous in deep water, so the deco gas is usually very clearly marked so that the diver does not use it by accident. Decompression can also be performed in the hyperbaric chamber, the chamber that can be under pressure and controls, allowing divers to slowly get used to the sea level.

Interesting, some divers developed a decompression disease when they fly immediately after the dive. This is because even when decompression is stopped, the body can still acclimatize on the sea level and most aircraft are underestimated, so flying is the equivalent of the rise very quickly from deep dive. For this provision, it is good to wait at least twelve hours and sometimes fly for a deep dive or a series of dives.
