As a underwater medicine student i have completed 4 table 62 oxygen recompression treatments. In the last hour of the treatment we as attendants go on oxygen for 1 hour to breath of the excess nitrogen. Soon after i put on the BIBs mask i get the unsurpressable urge to yawn every few minutes. Yes it usually is late at night, can i simply attribute this to oxygen induced tiredness (i don't feel tired) or........
Is this something to do with decreased levels of carbon dioxide, ph levels, with the chemoreceptors sending messages to the medulla to increase levels via a drive to yawn. No doubt i am way off and as i seem to be the only one with this problem it makes me look very bored, which must not impress the patient too much i am sure.
