https://www.divertown.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/diver-exploring-a-shipwreck-underwater-1024x768.jpg1024768High Pressure Nervous Syndrome (HPNS) is a neurological and physiological condition that affects individuals exposed to high-pressure environments, primarily encountered during deep-sea diving and underwater activities. It is a critical issue for divers, particularly those engaging in dives deeper than 150 meters (492 feet), where the effects of high pressure on the human body become increasingly pronounced. Understanding HPNS is essential for ensuring the safety and well-being of divers operating in extreme underwater conditions, as it can significantly impact their performance and health.
