Five dogs and twelve rabbits were submitted to simulated diving at 6 ATA (compressed air) and 13-15 ATA (normoxic oxygen + nitrogen). Progressive decompressions were carried on for the first, rapid for the lasts. Motor nerve conduction velocity and nerve-muscle delays were measured. No variations could be observed neither for nerve conduction velocity nor for muscular and nerve action potentials. Nevertheless optic and electronic microscopy observations shew some nerve, neuronal and a few muscular alterations occuring during rapid decompression.
五只狗和十二只兔子在6个绝对大气压（压缩空气）以及13 - 15个绝对大气压（常氧氧气 + 氮气）下接受模拟潜水。首次进行渐进式减压，最后几次进行快速减压。测量了运动神经传导速度和神经 - 肌肉延迟。无论是神经传导速度还是肌肉和神经动作电位均未观察到变化。然而，光学和电子显微镜观察显示在快速减压过程中出现了一些神经、神经元以及少数肌肉的改变。
