Interest in scuba (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) diving increased in the 1970s, and undersea diving continues to be a popular sport early in the 21st century, with approximately 3 million certified divers in the United States. The Divers Alert Network (DAN), an institution created in 1981 by the Commerce Department, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, has collected diving injury data for US and Canadian divers since 1987 that can be studied to suggest the epidemiologic characteristics of diving. This article examines neurologic injuries resulting from scuba diving.
20世纪70年代，人们对水肺（自给式水下呼吸器）潜水的兴趣有所增加，到21世纪初，海底潜水仍然是一项受欢迎的运动，美国约有300万获得认证的潜水员。潜水员警报网络（DAN）是由美国商务部国家海洋和大气管理局于1981年创建的一个机构，自1987年以来一直在收集美国和加拿大潜水员的潜水受伤数据，这些数据可供研究以揭示潜水的流行病学特征。本文探讨了水肺潜水导致的神经损伤。
