Part 7/8:
After completing their work, divers undergo a meticulous decompression process. The equation calculates necessary time depending on the depth worked. For example, a diver finishing a shift at 700 feet must expect several hours of safe decompression to avoid the bends.
Newer technology and procedures allow divers to handle emergencies, such as feeling ill during the decompression phase. If a diver shows symptoms of sickness, habitat pressure can be adjusted until their condition stabilizes, maintaining safety as a priority.
