Divers' hidden risk: study probes balance under pressure

NCT ID NCT07446348

Summary

This study aims to understand how nitrogen narcosis—a state of impaired judgment and coordination that can affect divers at depth—impairs balance and motor skills. It will compare 40 divers: some with a history of inner ear decompression illness and some without. Participants will perform coordination and balance tasks in a pressurized chamber to see if past ear injuries make them more vulnerable, helping to create better safety guidelines.
