time will also assist those local areas of impaired circulation
to desaturate with less risk of decompression sickness.
The calculation of microbubbles results in altered ascent
instructions. If microbubbles are assumed to be present
based on the data used by the Monitor 3 Air, the ascent rate
is reduced to 23 feet/minute. This will help prevent the
formation of microbubbles in the arterial circulation and
minimizes formation of microbubbles in the venous
circulation after the dive.
Summary
With its new decompression model, the Monitor 3 Air is a
versatile tool which can increase your diving comfort and
safety. As with any diving tool, however, ultimate responsi-
bility for diving safety remains with the individual diver.
The same responsible diving practices taught by all diving
certifications are still absolutely necessary in order to safely
dive with the Monitor 3 Air.
