Advanced Dive Medicine involves understanding and managing health issues related to diving, such as decompression sickness, nitrogen narcosis, and oxygen toxicity. It includes recognizing symptoms, implementing emergency treatments like administering oxygen, and understanding safe dive practices. Practitioners often have specialized training to handle complex medical problems that can occur during or after dives, ensuring divers' safety and well-being. This field combines medical knowledge with dive physics and physiology to prevent, diagnose, and treat diving-related illnesses effectively.
