including NOAA, USN, USAF, DAN, DCIEM & UHMS.
Not surprisingly, many differ, sometimes substantially.
Here's the rules of thumb that I use:
"Max Alt: Min Delay, Sngl, Low Stress Dive; Min Delay, Multi/Deco Dives
1000': None; None(low stress); 6 hr(mod stress)
2000': None; 2 hr(low stress); 8 hr(mod stress)
4000': 8 hr; 12 hr
6000': 12 hr; 24 hr
Table Definitions:
Low Stress: A dive performed well within the no-decompression limits, without significant risks such as high exertion, extremes of temperature, extreme fatigue etc.
Moderate Stress: Any dive performed to the no-decompression limit, decompression diving or dives involving one of the known risk factors for DCS.
High Stress: Extreme dive profiles, missed decompression stops or multiple risk factors. High Stress = High Risk. No predictions are possible due to the inherent alterations in off-gassing.
Slightly more complicated but in general in agreement with the table that I provided are the NOAA standards for Ascent to Altitude After Diving
