Recompression during decompression and effects on bubble formation in the pigAndreas Møllerløkken
Baromedical and Environmental Physiology Group, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, NTNU, Trondheim, Norway
Aviat Space Environ Med 78:557-60. 2007..There is a relationship between gas bubble formation in the vascular system and serious decompression sickness. Hence, control of the formation of vascular bubbles should allow safer decompression procedures...
Effect of a short-acting NO donor on bubble formation from a saturation dive in pigsA Møllerløkken
Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Olav Kyrres gt 3, N 7489 Trondheim, Norway
J Appl Physiol 101:1541-5. 2006..2 to 0.02 bubbles/cm(2) (P < 0.0001) in the experimental group compared with the controls. The present study gives further support to the role of NO in preventing vascular bubble formation after decompression...
Observation of increased venous gas emboli after wet dives compared to dry divesAndreas Møllerløkken
Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway
Diving Hyperb Med 41:124-8. 2011..To test this, the aim of the present paper was to compare the number of venous gas bubbles observed following a short, deep and a shallow, long air dive performed dry in a hyperbaric chamber and following actual dives in open water...
Venous gas embolism as a predictive tool for improving CNS decompression safetyA Møllerløkken
Baromedical and Environmental Physiology Group, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Medisinsk teknisk forskningssenter, Olav Kyrres gt 9, 7489, Trondheim, Norway
Eur J Appl Physiol 112:401-9. 2012..In the last part of the review we introduce our thoughts for the future, and how the enigma of DCS should be approached...
Post-dive bubble formation in rats: effects of exercise 24 h ahead repeated 30 min before the diveAre Løset
Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Trondheim, Norway
Aviat Space Environ Med 77:905-8. 2006..The aim of this study was to determine whether high-intensity exercise immediately prior to a dive eliminates the protective effect of a single bout of high-intensity exercise 24 h before the dive...
Immersion before dry simulated dive reduces cardiomyocyte function and increases mortality after decompressionSvein Erik Gaustad
Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Medical Technology Center, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Olav Kyrres gt 9, N 7489 Trondheim, Norway
J Appl Physiol 109:752-7. 2010..The data suggest that immersion before a dive results in impaired cardiomyocyte and Ca2+ handling and may be a cellular explanation to reduced cardiac function observed in humans after a dive...
S100B and its relation to intravascular bubbles following decompressionMarianne B Havnes
Doctoral Student, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Olav Kyrres gt 9, N 7489 Trondheim, Norway, Phone 47 0 72 828043, E mail
Diving Hyperb Med 40:210-2. 2010..Entrapment of these bubbles may lead to cellular injury and cerebral oedema. S100B is a protein biomarker that is released in CNS injuries and the concentration is related to the amount of brain damage...
The role of intra-vascular bubbles and the vascular endothelium in decompression sicknessAlf O Brubakk
Director of the Baromedical and Environmental Physiology Group, BAREN, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, 7489 Trondheim, Norway, Phone 47 0 73 598904, Fax 47 0 73 598613, E mail
Diving Hyperb Med 39:162-9. 2009..Furthermore, as the formation of vascular gas bubbles can be significantly influenced by physical exercise and the use of nitric oxide, a novel approach to reducing the risk of decompression injury is suggested...
The effect of two consecutive dives on bubble formation and endothelial function in ratsMarianne B Havnes
Research Student, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Olav Kyrres gt 3, N 7489 Trondheim, Norway, Phone 47 0 91 513615, Fax 47 0 73 597940, E mail
Diving Hyperb Med 38:29-32. 2008..In the present study, we investigated the effect of two consecutive dives, separated by a 24-hour surface interval, on bubble formation and endothelial damage in rats...
Aortic function in rats after decompression without ultrasonically detectable bubble formationKim Vidar Rasdal
Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway
Aviat Space Environ Med 80:1006-11. 2009..The degree of dysfunction appears to be related to the number of bubbles present. The aim of the study was to determine whether decompression without bubble formation visible by ultrasound had any effect on arterial endothelial function...
