Secti<strong>on</strong> 3 - <strong>Dive</strong> InjuriesFigure 3.5-5 represents the maximum depth of the last dive stratifiedby diagnosis. Deeper then 60 fsw (feet of seawater; 18 msw, ormeters of seawater), there is little difference between the depthsrecorded by injured divers for any of the three diagnostic categories.Figure 3.5-5Maximum depthof last dive bydiagnosis (n=297).Figures 3.5-6 <strong>and</strong> 3.5-7 show the maximum depth of the dive seriesby gender <strong>and</strong> the maximum depth of the last dive by gender,respectively. When the injury cases in the sample are analyzed bymaximum depth of the dive series, there is a tendency for DCS IIcases to be associated with deeper depths.Figure 3.5-6Maximum depthof the dive seriesby gender.DAN’s <str<strong>on</strong>g>Report</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> Decompressi<strong>on</strong> <strong>Illness</strong>, <strong>Diving</strong> <strong>Fatalities</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Project</strong> <strong>Dive</strong> Explorati<strong>on</strong>: 2005 Editi<strong>on</strong> 57
