This patient, despite their multi-morbidity, undertook family travels to Egypt. Despite disease symptoms and plethora of medication, the patient did not seek medical advice on preventative measures or potential health risks prior to the departure. During the stay in Egypt, the patient sustained a lower limb injury, which resulted in pretibial hematoma requiring a 2-week stay in a local hospital. The patient's condition was systematically deteriorating and after returning to Poland a continued multi-specialist treatment in the field of surgery, nephrology and cardiology was required. The medical history of the described patient and the severity of heart failure and chronic kidney disease were clear contraindications to long-distance travels. Despite those risks, the patient did not seek pre-travel medical advice from specialists and did not undertake any preventative measures. As a result of an accident during travel, an elderly patient with multiple diseases suffered serious health complications that significantly and permanently worsened his general health condition. Due to the aging population and the increasing amounts of elderly patients traveling internationally, proper preparation of seniors before departure is one of the key aspects of modern travel medicine.</p>","PeriodicalId":45964,"journal":{"name":"International Maritime Health","volume":"75 3","pages":"177-180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluates the incidence and risk factors of decompression sickness (DCS) among medical personnel in a hyperbaric centre over a 25-year period. Decompression sickness, characterized by gas bubble formation in tissues during planned decompression, was documented in 6 cases among 41,507 sessions. Symptoms varied from mild cutaneous to severe neurological manifestations, dependent on bubble size and location. Risk factors identified include age, physical condition, dehydration, and BMI. Preventative measures included adherence to decompression protocols, hydration, oxygen pre-breathing, and physical fitness maintenance. Despite these precautions, the occurrence of DCS underscores the inherent occupational risk faced by hyperbaric medical staff.
