Abstract
The invention concerns a method, device and computer program product for monitoring or planning a dive of a diver. The method includes providing data on the composition of gases breathed by the diver during the dive, providing data on the depth or ambient pressure of the diver, and using a model to provide a safe ascent profile for the diver based on the data on the composition of gases and on the depth or ambient pressure. According to the invention, the method further comprising detecting, based on the data on the composition of gases, a gas composition change which may lead to a deep tissue isobaric counter diffusion situation, and the model comprising means for immediately temporally retarding the ascent profile if such gas composition change is detected. The invention can be used to mitigate the harmful effects of dangerous breathing gas changes during diving.
