Abstract

A review of the literature on the use of transcutaneous Doppler to detect circulating venous bubbles occurring after hyperbaric exposure, with emphasis on the detection of bubbles occurring after relatively small decrements in pressure, is presented. The correlation between circulating bubbles and the occurrence of decompression illness is examined.
