Part of the Research Report S. series

The neuropsychological performance of a group of 51 divers was evaluated using a computer administered psychometric test battery and the General Health Questionnaire.

All had suffered a single episode of neurological decompression illness between six and 39 months earlier.

Their results were compared with those from an individually matched group of divers who had never suffered decompression illness and a second similarly matched group who had never dived.

No significant difference was found between the performances of the three groups.

The findings of this study, presented here, suggest that the outlook for recovery (or preservation) of cognitive function following neurological decompression illness is good.
