title: I know we've always done it by hand but ... [letter].
abstract: Increasing complexity of hyperbaric treatments and emergency treatment profiles make it highly desirable to add a real-time computerized recording and analysis system to hyperbaric chambers.  These systems keep track of each person who enters the chamber as a patient or support person and compute their individual decompression obligation and pulmonary oxygen toxicity doses.  The technology exists and the cost and training are worth the price.
