Abstract
A probabilistic model of decompression sickness is modified by introducing corrections that determine more precisely the risk of tissue injury by gas bubbles as a function of blood supply and bubble nucleation intensity. Parameters of the “worst” virtual tissues and theoretical curves corresponding to empirical data on the cumulative probability of decompression sickness symptoms for some altitude decompression procedures are determined. The parameters are shown to depend on final pressure, physical load, and duration of preoxygenation.
