Rats with complete spinal transections were compressed in helium-oxygen to 120 bars. Tremors and increased EMG activity in limbs rostral as well as caudal to the lesions were observed beginning at 30 bars. Spinal seizures occurred at 95 bars, similar to cortical seizure thresholds of intact rats. Denervated limbs remained flaccid throughout the dives. No rostro-caudal progression of symptoms was evident in normal animals, but fluctuation of symptoms with increasing pressure was frequently observed. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that the effects of pressure on aggregates of neurons exceed those on isolated components.
