Narcosis
Reading through some old posts I noticed a comment that was kind of intriguing. In a discussion on deco and bailout, someone mentioned that Nitrox didn't make any difference from a narcosis standpoint, as (I'm paraphrasing) O2 is just as narcotic as nitrogen.
Has there been any research on the effects of nitrox on narcosis (granted as you go deeper, and the narcotic effect becomes more pronounced, you are also diving a leaner mix)? If there hasn't been any research, what is everyone's opinion based on their diving experience? I know personally I start to "feel" narced (i.e. noticable) at around 135' with a PO2 of 1.3 (rebreather). I know I am being impared before that, but 135 is where it becomes apparent. It would be interesting to see if changing the PO2 in the loop changed the narcotic effect. |
