[Probability of altitude decompression sickness following a drop in pressure from 840 to 308 mm Hg].
The decompression from the hyperbaric air atmosphere with the pressure 840+/-5 mm Hg and subsequent 40 min exposure to the hypobaric atmosphere 308+/-1 mm Hg containing 40 to 95% O2 cause a decompression disease in 5-40% cases. The probability of the disease depends on the duration of nitrogen saturation at an increased pressure, physical fitness and individual susceptibility to decompression sickness.
