[Some aspects of otovestibular function in hyperbaric saturation].
Otovestibular performance was investigated in divers undergoing air and helium-oxygen hyperbaric saturation cycles. The subjects were all very experienced deep-sea divers. Before cycles, they presented various signs of altered otovestibular performance. These were not altered when controlled subsequently. No conclusions can be drawn from this small series, though its heterogeneity lends some significance to the results and it has been presented on account of the lack of other studies of this question.
