Arterial blood gas measurements during deep open-water breath-hold dives Open
Arterial blood gas measurements at both maximum depth and the surface before breathing on the same dive have not previously been obtained during deep breath-hold dives in cold open-water conditions and competition dive format. Such measure…

Performance of cartridge and granular carbon dioxide absorbents in a closed-circuit diving rebreather Open
Introduction: Scrubbers in closed-circuit rebreather systems remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the exhaled gas. In an attempt to be more user-friendly and efficient, the ExtendAir® non-granular, pre-formed scrubber cartridge has been develo…

The performance of ‘temperature stick’ carbon dioxide absorbent monitors in diving rebreathers Open
Introduction: Diving rebreathers use canisters containing soda lime to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from expired gas. Soda lime has a finite ability to absorb CO2. Temperature sticks monitor the exothermic reaction between CO2 and soda lime…

Storage of partly used closed-circuit rebreather carbon dioxide absorbent canisters Open
Introduction: Diving rebreathers use “scrubber” canisters containing soda lime to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the expired gas. Soda lime has a finite ability to absorb CO2. We undertook an experiment to determine whether the manner of…
