The Effects of Decompression on Subjects Repeatedly Exposed to 43,000 Feet While Using Standard Pressure Breathing Equipment: Incidence of Aeroembolism in an Individual Subjected to 82 Exposures, a Case Report

It is felt that aging played little or no part in the increasing susceptibility of the subject to aeroembolism. (Author)
