AB  - Dysbarism  is  commonly  encountered  in  scuba  divers  and  refers  to  complications  associated  with  changes  in  environmental  ambient  pressure  and  with  breathing  compressed  gases.  These  effects  are  governed  by  three  gas  laws:  Boyle's  law  states  that  pressure  and  volume  are  inversely  related;  Henry's  law  states  that,  at  equilibrium,  the  quantity  of  gas  in  solution  is  proportional  to  the  partial  pressure  of  that  gas;  Dalton's  law  states  that  total  pressure  exerted  by  a  mixture  of  gases  is  the  sum  of  the  partial  pressures  of  each  gas.
