Elevation of spectral components of electrodermal activity precedes central nervous system oxygen toxicity symptoms in divers.
Journal Article Commun Med (Lond) · December 19, 2024 BACKGROUND: Oxygen-rich breathing mixtures up to 100% are used in some underwater diving operations for several reasons. Breathing elevated oxygen partial pressures (PO2) increases the risk of developing central nervous system oxygen toxicity (CNS-OT) whic ...

Journal Article Sensors (Basel) · December 3, 2024 We examined data from Naval Sea Systems Command grant project N0463A-12-C-001, "Hypercapnia: cognitive effects and monitoring", with the objective of validating or repudiating heart rate variability (HRV) as a warning sign of cognitive impairment from divi ...
