[Dynamics of several indices of the enzyme-hormone status of the body after hypobaria and during decompression sickness].

Hormone content and enzyme activity change under the influence of hyperbaria and in decompression disease long before the symptoms of the disease appear. Apart from that, an increase in adrenalin, noradrenalin, 17-oxycorticosteroids, and glucose concentrations, erythrocyte number and hemoglobin, as well as lowering of amylase and catalase activities are the indicative signs for prognostication and diagnosis of the decompression disease.
