WARNINGS and SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS relating to DECOMPRESSION 

•  There are few legitimate excuses for making unplanned Decompression 

dives, and the consequences of this type of diving can be severe.  By 

making an unplanned Decompression dive without the necessary 

preparation and training, you will have placed yourself in an unnecessarily 

dangerous situation.  

•  Allow a surface interval of at least 24 hours before reentering the water in the 

event a dive requires emergency decompression. 

•  By entering decompression, you automatically impose a ceiling above you 

which you cannot immediately ascend beyond, denying you free access to 

the surface.  

•  Existing data for making planned decompression dives is extremely 

limited, and virtually nonexistent for repetitive decompression diving

.

  

Decompression diving greatly increases your risk of decompression 

sickness. 

•  Exiting the water with the NIBG in the Deco zone greatly increases your risk 

of decompression sickness, and may result in serious injury or death.
