Abstrakt: An opportunity was taken to carry out a pilot on human skin disinfection during a recent long-term saturation dive at extremely high pressure. Despite a number of difficulties, results were sufficiently encouraging to suggest that, given ideal conditions, sterilization of the skin in preparation for surgical or anesthetic procedures, or both, in a hyperbaric environment is possible.
