Q

EP for loss of NDC during dive?

A

1) Abort dive
2) Use buddy divers NDC as the governing NDC
3) If single diver or both divers loose NDC, the diver(s) must weigh the risk of DCS from immediately surfacing.Obviously if the diver(s) know they are well inside no-decompression limits, they should abort the dive and ascend following the slowest bubble. The diver(s) should be observed for one hour after surfacing.
