"Based on lipid solubility-the generally accepted guideline of a gas's narcotic properties-oxygen is worse (more narcotic) than nitrogen. Hence, you're as or more narc'd on EANx 25 as you are on air."
Kendall, EANx25 at 160' gives us a PO2 of 1.46. This is news to me that oxygen is narcotic at this pressure. Who told you this because I have doubts that this is true?
