Od wydawcy:

The focus in this new title is on PFO (Patent Foramen Ovale) as a risk factor in diving and thus the text is concerned primarily with dissolved gas and the subsequent aberrant distribution of those venous bubbles in the presence of a natural and common anatomical variant of cardiac development. The prevalence of PFO is about 25% in the general population and several respectable investigators have studied this problem and feel that PFO should be considered a definite risk factor for the development of decompression sickness.
This is a highly specific review of a relitively controversial topic in diving medicine by a research group that has published extensively in this area. This text is generally very readable and thought provoking. It provides an excellent update on recent research in a fascinating area of diving medicine. It should be of interest to all involved in diving medicine and hyperbaric medicine.
