Caisson Worker's Disease - Coggle Diagram

- - - - N and O Partial Pressure--> How much gas dissolves at atm but too as much each gas is contributing to it.
        
        Sea level: 1 atm, 0,7 N and 0.2 O
        
        Absorption and Desorption
        
        Maior pressão-->Maior dissolução--> até o equilíbrio
        
        Raise the partial pressure
        
        Increase percentage of the gas in the air:: N is being dissolved into the liquid and the oxygen will remain
        
        Increase Total Pressure: All gases being increasing the amount of dissolve into a liquid
        
        Problem: high pressure, increases in the whole body. Pressure resist to outside pressure! Partial Pressure increase and the air dissolves in the blood, muscles and neurons. This process of dissolving doesn't present a problem because the gas is kept in check by high external pressure. However, when the pressure drops especially quickly, the gas wants to desorb and leave the blood and tissues. This isn't a problem as long as there a place for it to escape. Spoiler: there isn't
