Arieli has previously demonstrated that the exposure metric K could be used to predict pulmonary oxygen toxicity (POT) based on changes in Vital Capacity (VC). Our previous findings indicate that the Equivalent Surface Oxygen Time (ESOT) allows the estimation of POT without loss of accuracy compared to K. In this work, we have further investigated POT recovery.

Bubbles produced in the circulation may damage the vascular cells, leading to vascular dysfunction. In this study, five subjects were recruited and subjected to hyperbaric exposure (15 meters; 100 minutes).
