===Practical effectiveness of models===
Line 334:
The practical efficacy of gas switches from helium-based diluent to nitrox for accelerating decompression has not been demonstrated convincingly. These switches increase risk of inner ear decompression sickness due to counterdiffusion effects.<ref name="Mitchell 2016" />
Besides the basic dive profile and gas mixes, and the residual gas load from previous dives, three groups of factors are considered likely to have significant influence on decompression stress, the evolution of bubbles in the diver, and development of symptoms. These are exercise, before, during and after the dive, Thermal status, during and after the dive, including the effects on perfusion distribution and changes during the dive, and the set of factors grouped under the label "predisposition", such as the state of hydration, physical fitness, age, biological health, and other characteristics which could affect the uptake and release of gases in the diver.<ref name="Fogarty 2025" />
