Plasma activities of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were studied, along with hematological changes, in rats suffering from various degrees of experimental decompression sickness (DS). By 1 h after decompression, LDH and CPK activities were elevated in moderate and severe DS whereas GOT and GPT were elevated only in severe DS. ALP was reduced in all decompressed rats. Hematological changes indicated hemoconcentration, the degree of which paralleled the severity of DS. By 24 h after decompression, all enzyme activities were approaching control levels with the exception of GOT, which was further elevated from the 1-h value. The observed lung damage in rats with severe DS in conjunction with the hematologic and enzyme data suggested that hypoxemic-hypoxia, incident to bubble embolization of pulmonary vasculature, was a major factor in altering the blood enzyme pattern in DS. Serum enzyme data from two inadequately decompressed divers are also reported.
