hospital for the decompression chamber


What is the minimum concentration of oxygen required to maintain
consciousness at sea level? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ 16%


What is the maximum percentage of oxygen that sport divers use in a
Nitrox mixture? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ 40%


What is the maximum recommended depth for using 100 percent
oxygen? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ 20 feet


What FO2 does EAN 32 contain? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ 68
percent nitrogen and 32 percent oxygen

,What are two reasons why EAN32 is a good choice for Nitrox diving? -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Will provide you with a good combination
of extended bottom time and unrestricted depth within the sport diving
range, &. using EAN32 poses less risk in terms of exposure to oxygen
than other richer mixtures.


What is the maximum partial pressure of oxygen (PO2) we use in Nitrox
diving? - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ 1.6


What does the term oxygen toxicity mean? - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ condition that occurs when the diver breathes a mixture
of gas that allows the PO2 to exceed 1.6 by going too deep or exceeding
the time limit at a lower PO2


What is the primary risk associated with Nitrox diving? - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ Oxygen poisoning


What are the words represented by the acronym CONVENTID? -
ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Con - convulsions, V - visual
disturbances,E - ringing/auditory hallucinations, N - nausea, T -
twitching, I - irritability/apprehension, D - dizziness

,This tape makes it quick and easy to spot a Nitrox bottle in a group of
tanks.

mixture used in the tank (FO2) and its MOD


What is the most important setting that must be made to your Nitrox

with air, or a different Nitrox mixture that allows him to go deeper
without violating his maximum PO2, and dives beyond the MOD for the
mixture you are using, you will not be able to go to his aid if he needs
help without violating the MOD of your mixture, so you both may
extend your bottom time and enjoy the same no-decompression limits.


What does the term technical diving refer to? - ACCURATE
