Scuba diving can be a dangerous sport, when strict guidelines are not followed. For those that run into difficulties, the presence of a hyperbaric chamber in close proximity is a rarity.

As hyperbaric oxygen under pressure is the only effective treatment, the presence of a Hyperlite is an ideal solution. Not only do you receive immediate relief from the effects of the sickness, but whilst receiving the therapy, you can be taken to the nearest medical centre, maybe even to a chamber where full hands-on medical attention is available. In a very remote location, full therapy needs to be completed on site, making the difference between full recovery and life in a wheelchair or even death.
