Abstract :
The study of range of motion limitations of an anti-contaminant diving dress was conducted as a part of the continuing study of the health and safety aspects associated with diving in polluted water. Divers wearing a modified MKXII diving dress were measured for range of motion in a series of movements while submerged in 33 FFW. The changes in range of motion between a surface baseline and full diving dress submerged were identified.
