| Abstract |
Study of the terminology of decompression illness (DCI). It is argued that an analysis of clinical outcome, using an approach known as "survival analysis" would be a better basis for classifying cases of DCI than more traditional means of classification, dependent in part on clinical judgment concerning severity and therapy. |
