decompressiemodel
Decompressiemodel refers to a computational or mathematical framework used to understand and predict the process of decompression sickness, commonly known as "the bends." This condition affects divers and individuals exposed to rapid changes in ambient pressure. The core principle behind decompressiemodels is based on the behavior of inert gases, primarily nitrogen, dissolving into and out of the body's tissues under varying pressures.
At increased pressures, such as during diving, more inert gas dissolves into the tissues. If the pressure
Various decompressiemodels exist, each with different algorithms and assumptions about tissue perfusion and gas uptake/release. Early
