Oxygen Tips<br />
• Breathing pure oxygen at the surface may alleviate<br />
or even resolve symptoms of DCS.<br />
• Emergency oxygen is not a definitive treatment<br />
for a scuba injury, and symptoms may return.<br />
Even after symptoms have resolved, seek urgent<br />
medical evaluation.<br />
• If a diver presents neurological symptoms, duration<br />
of surface oxygen breathing should last at least<br />
90 minutes, even if symptoms resolve after the first<br />
few minutes.<br />
