A prospective single-blind randomised clinical trial comparing two treatment tables for the initial management of mild decompression sickness.

Introduction: Limited evidence suggests that shorter recompression schedules may be as efficacious as the US Navy Treatment Table 6 (USN TT6) for treatment of milder presentations of decompression sickness (DCS). This study aimed to determine if divers with mild DCS could be effectively treated with a shorter chamber treatment table.

Methods: All patients presenting to the Fremantle Hospital Hyperbaric Medicine Unit with suspected DCS were assessed for inclusion.

Job satisfaction of rural medical interns: A qualitative study.

Objective: To study reasons for job satisfaction and dissatisfaction among interns.

Design: Using a qualitative methodology, one-to-one interviews were conducted with interns.

Setting: The study was based at a Victorian Rural Intern Training program.
