Outline of the course
This course is designed to teach you the hazards of utilizing Helium for dives to a maximum depth of
150 fsw / 46 msw that may require stage decompression, utilizing EANx mixtures and/or oxygen
during decompression.
This course aims to give you the knowledge necessary to plan and safely execute Helitrox dives including gas needs and requirements, oxygen toxicity limitations, nitrogen narcosis limitations, and emergency planning, including omitted decompression, decompression sickness, and equipment failure.
Topics covered will also include emergency and contingency procedures, entry and descent techniques; inert gas narcosis
and oxygen toxicity; variable ascent-rate techniques and deep-stop models; diver trim, ballast and buoyancy compensation;
tethered or untethered decompression methods; shore or boat based dive team support and chamber locations; communications and emergency breathing gases; and NAUI Technical Equipment Configuration (NTEC).
You may also combine your Helitrox course with the NAUI
Decompression Techniques Diver Course, with additional
training and certification dives.
