Method of protection against caisson disease in rescue of personnel from sunk ship / 2507109
Invention relates to life-saving methods in emergent evacuation from sunk ship. Proposed method consists in that prior to filling rescue means with compressed air the ship crewman should latch his halyard safety hook on ship guard rails.
