A case of altitude decompression chokes in a subject is described, which occurred unintentionally in an experimental series dealing with safe time intervals between diving and flying at 9,000 m of altitude. Before the development of the first signs of chokes, intracardial gas bubbles could be registered during 65 min and heavy showers of bubbles during 38 min with the precordial Doppler ultrasound technique. The intracardial bubbles and symptoms partly continued after recompression to surface pressure. After 10 min of hyperbaric oxygen treatment, the symptoms disappeared completely. The same subject, as well as others, did not develop chokes with similar durations of heavy showers of intracardial gas bubbles in other experiments.
本文描述了一例受试者发生高空减压病窒息的情况，该情况在一项关于潜水与在9000米高空飞行之间安全时间间隔的实验系列中意外发生。在窒息的最初症状出现之前，使用胸前区多普勒超声技术可在65分钟内记录到心内气泡，在38分钟内记录到大量气泡。重新加压至水面压力后，心内气泡和症状部分持续存在。经过10分钟的高压氧治疗，症状完全消失。在其他实验中，同一受试者以及其他受试者在出现类似时长的心内大量气泡时并未发生窒息。
