Wow!!!! Two VERY cool places in one day! Is there a plan for the hyperbaric chamber? Where it's going to be used? ( I know in the ocean )

That's really cool! Luckily I never had to be in one but I had to take a buddy to one who had an Arterial Gas Embolism (he coughed on a dive in 8 feet of water). He's good now but man that was scary.

What's your link to the hyperbaric chamber?

I work for a Patient Transfer company in Toronto. We service all of the Hospitals in the Peovince. Great opportunity to see first hand the latest and greatest in Medicine. Toronto General Hospital originally had an HB Chamber installed in the 60s to treat the subway borers for the Bends.

Interesting reading into Hyperbaric Medicine if you an interest.
