The initial letter that went out to Workshop participants outlined the background that led to the formulation of the workshop topic. It stated 'The median depth of diving in the U.S. Navy is only about 34 fsw. Because the great majority of fleet diving is only to shallow depths, the U.S. Navy has not yet really confronted the true magnitude of the decompression problem. There is every indication that if the U.S. Navy were to suddenly desire to start diving deeper, there would be a tremendous increase in the incidence of decompression sickness. The evidence to support this contention can be found in the fact that the U.S. Navy has never been able to conduct a 'bends'-free deep saturation dive; the project to develop deep subsaturation decompression procedures for the MK 1 Deep Dive System was abandoned due to severe decompression sickness; the diver training program has its highest incidence of decompression sickness on its deep air narcosis demonstration chamber dive; and finally, the U.S. Navy Safety Center statistics show an inordinately high incidence of decompression sickness on dives deeper that 100 fsw. The first section of the report presents a brief history of the development of the U.S. Navy's version of the Haldane model, along with a description of some of the diving environments in which the model has not worked. The second section deals with the 12 neo-Haldanian assumptions and presents the best current thinking with regard to their viability; it also serves to meet the objectives of the Workshop. The third section of the report contains the individual manuscripts presented by the Workshop attendees.
