Popis: An opportunity was taken to carry out a pilot study 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, sterilisation of the skin in preparation for surgical/anaesthetic procedures in a hyperbaric environment is possible.
