Summary/Abstract: Nitrogen narcosis is the primary reason for limitations in the use of compressed atmospheric air, as a breathing gas in deep-sea diving operations. The attempts to impose common regulations fixing the maximum depth limit for the use of air as a breathing gas for diving, at national and international level, are hampered by the peculiarities of this phenomenon. Differences in the national approaches among the individual countries in NATO and the EU hinders the development of a common standard and calls for a comprehensive review on the matter. In the article, the experience of other countries and the current status of the issue are analyzed, and recommendations for a national level solution are proposed.
