Learn how DAN made a difference in helping divers in need.
| DANEL - Managing Middle Ear Barotrauma By Divers Alert Network (DANSA) Description: Barotitis Media (Middle Ear Barotrauma) is by far the most frequently reported injury among divers. People with barotitis media generally develop symptoms immediately following the dive, but delays of up to one day or longer have been reported. When the diver descends, the pressure can cause injury to the middle ear. This overpressure of the middle ear can cause serious fluid and blood to leak into the middle ear, partially or completely filling it. Learn how Danel, a fellow diver who experienced Middle Ear Barotrauma, got help by DAN. | |
