In DCS bubbles form primarily from inert gas that becomes dissolved in tissues over the course of a compressed gas dive.

In both settings, bubbles may provoke ischaemic, inflammatory, and mechanical injury to tissues and their associated microcirculation. While AGE typically presents with stroke-like manifestations referrable to cerebral involvement, DCS can affect many organs including the brain, spinal cord, inner ear, musculoskeletal tissue, cardiopulmonary system and skin, and potential symptoms are protean in both nature and severity.

The strategy of including small fractions of nitrogen in the respired gas to produce an anti-HPNS narcotic effect increases the gas density which may exceed recommended guidelines. In 2020 the 'Wetmules' dive team explored the Pearse Resurgence cave (New Zealand) to 245 m breathing trimix (approximately 4% oxygen, 91% helium and 5% nitrogen). Despite the presence of nitrogen, one diver experienced HPNS tremors beyond 200 m. The use of hydrogen (a light yet slightly narcotic gas) has been suggested as a solution to this problem but there are concerns, including the potential for ignition and explosion of hydrogen-containing gases, and accelerated heat loss. In February 2023 a single dive to 230 m was conducted in the Pearse Resurgence to experience hydrogen as a breathing gas in a deep bounce dive. Using an electronic closed-circuit rebreather, helihydrox (approximately 3% oxygen, 59% helium and 38% hydrogen) was breathed between 200 and 230 m.
