What is the ideal urine output rate inside the chamber?

The ideal urine output rate inside the chamber is considered to be 0.5 cc/kg/hr. This rate is significant in maintaining proper hydration and monitoring overall physiological function during the undersea operations.

During submersion in a hyperbaric environment, various physiological changes occur, which can affect fluid balance and kidney function. A controlled urine output rate of 0.5 cc/kg/hr helps ensure that the body's hydration status is maintained within safe limits while mitigating risks associated with dehydration or fluid overload. This target also allows for adequate monitoring of the body's response to the hyperbaric conditions and ensures that the crew can identify any potential health issues early on.

In scenarios where the urine output is significantly higher or lower than this ideal rate, it could indicate complications such as dehydration, renal impairment, or other medical concerns that would need to be addressed promptly.
