Source sentences:
text: Ascent-induced hypoxia is caused by a drop in oxygen partial pressure as ambient pressure is reduced.
text: During ascent, the ambient pressure is reduced, and at some stage the inert gases dissolved in any given tissue will be at a higher concentration than the equilibrium state and start to diffuse out again.
text: The pressure is then gradually reduced to enable the person to breathe out the extra gases.
text: Some of it can be breathed if the diver ascends, as the ambient pressure is reduced, and even without ascent, in some systems a bit of air from the cylinder is available to inflate buoyancy compensator devices (BCDs) even after it no longer has pressure enough to open the demand valve.
