High Pressure Neurological Syndrome - an overview ...
High-Pressure Nervous Syndrome. High pressure induces a constellation of symptoms consisting of tremor, ataxia, nausea, and vomiting that is known as the high-pressure nervous syndrome (HPNS). 120 It occurs at an ambient pressure greater than 15 to 20 ATA and was first described during the compression phase of deep dives with a helium-O 2 ...

High-pressure neurological syndrome (HPNS)
High-pressure neurological syndrome (HPNS) is a condition encountered in diving beyond a depth of 100 m. Manifestations include headache, tremor, myoclonus, neuropsychiatric disturbances and EEG changes. Convulsions are seen only in experimental animals. Most of the changes are reversible on surfaci

2020-12-28 · What is high altitude syndrome? High altitude syndrome typically appears on rapid ascent to altitude above 2,500 metres (8,000+feet), e.g. flying directly to Lhasa or La Paz from sea level. It is caused by the lowering of atmospheric oxygen pressure when ascending to high altitudes. The human body will
