Elevated ambient pressure is inseparable from exploration of sea depths.The first attempts to design underwater devices almost immediately followed the construction of vehicles to navigate the sea surface. However, it took decades to design a land-based model of hyperbaric conditions and apply them for the treatment of various diseases.
