This article is another in a series of articles on the research and the deployment of saturation diving technology in our country. This part discusses Polish specificities and achievements against the background of economic and historical context. It describes the creation of the base for saturation diving in the times of economic hardship in our country. Over this period, the shipbuilding industry was driving saturation diving research as a basis for the construction of diving systems to be exported to secure the extraction of the resources from the sea shelf. This paper describes the efforts of the animators and protagonists of underwater research in our country, whose work is continued to this day. In its second part the author shows how the Polish system of saturation diving was created. The article also considers the technical and organisational conditions in which the first saturation dives took place and the history of the development of the Polish decompression method for saturation diving. A key role in this difficult task was played by the creation of a base for this industry and research potential, assisted by the relevant state agencies, dedicated for the defence sector. A multiannual National Research and Development Plan (Polish abbr. CPBR) was set up with objectives 9.2 and 9.5 focused on medical and technical research resulting in the development of a diving system with its organisational framework, medical safety solutions, and reliable technology. The outcomes of this programme are still being implemented today. Despite advances in the medical and technical fields as well as organisation, the problems of saturation diving are still pertinent because, regardless of its complexity and high cost, this is the most efficient diving format that allows for very deep diving operations, currently up to 400-500m.

Here we present a unique life path of Sergiy Gulyar, a world-known Ukrainian scientist who was overcoming extreme conditions studying them on himself. He has developed his determination and responsibility from his basic experiences as a surgeon and his desire to win from his involvement in sports. His research in underwater laboratories has shown a capacity to find untrodden pathways to understand and explain what others did not even suspect. His physiological studies on the role of sea depths, breathing mixtures, underwater exposures, and diving schemes marked the path to the aquanauts and undersea man. Reaching the hyper depths equivalent to 2,500 m revealed the physiological limits of human being and defined how to handle hyperbaric respiratory failure. Prof. S. Gulyar suggested a usage of natural physiological mechanisms to accelerate the re-adaptation process as a part of the highmountain rehabilitation of hyperbaria-adapted people. Dissertations were defended, books and articles were written, a scientific school of followers was created. Unfortunately, during the Soviet period, Prof. S. Gulyar faced a set of organizational problems and obstacles from the Soviet regime. In particular, his works were classified or hushed up, his intellectual property was often used without mentioning the author and his scientific team was intimidated by criminal investigations. Main recognition during this period had come from professional societies in Europe and the United States. After the collapse of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), Prof. S. Gulyar introduced a number of innovations and inventions in electromagnetic medicine and physiology. In particular, he has managed to account for main common features of physiological effects of light stimulation produced by Lasers, Light-Emitted Diodes and Bioptron light sources. By doing so, some mystical dogmas were filtered out and new paths to sensible light-induced treatments were developed. At the same time, Prof. S. Gulyar has preserved the legacy of many generations of medical professionals who used light in their treatments. He has shown in his physiological experiments that stimulation of biologically active zones including acupuncture points light stimulation has a wide spectrum of biological effects including alleviation of pain symptoms. Now mono- and polychromatic visual and transcutaneous light therapy of pain has been recognized scientifically and clinically, and its place in medicine has been firmly established. Prof. S. Gulyar described a new functional system of the organism that regulates the electromagnetic equilibrium. A step into the future was the first experimentally grounded technology for the use of fullerene-modified light. Positive changes have been proven with its percutaneous and ocular use. These first results open the door to complete analysis and future investigations. Prof. S. Gulyar has published 20 monographs, 470 papers and abstracts, and received 11 patents. Many of his inventions have been implemented, the others are still awaiting implementation. This article is based on the data obtained by the authors during many years of their personal cooperation, as well as from the memoirs of Prof. S. Gulyar and the materials he provided.

Przedstawiamy wyjątkowe życie Sergieja Gulyara, znanego w kręgach światowych medycyny w tym medycyny podwodnej ukraińskiego naukowca. Pokonał ekstremalne warunki, zdobywając samodzielnie. Jego wykształcenie jako chirurga zaszczepiło w nim determinację i odpowiedzialność, natomiast sport zaszczepił w nim wolę zwycięstwa. W pionierskich badaniach w podwodnych laboratoriach ujawniły jego zdolność do rozwiązywania problemów, by znaleźć i wyjaśnić to, z czego inni nawet nie zdawali sobie sprawy. Jego badania fizjologiczne nad rolą głębin morskich, z zastosowaniem mieszanin oddechowych, metod nurkowania utorowały drogę akwanautom. Doświadczalne badania zjawisk oddechowych na hiper głębokości równej 2500 m rozszerzyło wiedzę na temat fizjologicznego ograniczenia człowieka i określiło sposoby pomocy przy hiperbarycznej niewydolności oddechowej. Prof. S. Gulyar zaproponował wykorzystanie naturalnych mechanizmów fizjologicznych do przyspieszenia procesu readaptacji osób zaadaptowanych do hipierbarii poprzez ich rehabilitację wysokogórską. Zdobywał stopnie naukowe, publikował książki i artykuły oraz założył szkołę naukową, w której znaleźli się jego zwolennicy. Niestety, w okresie sowieckim prof. S. Gular napotykał na szereg problemów organizacyjnych i przeszkód ze strony władz sowieckich. W szczególności jego prace były utajniane lub przemilczane, jego własność intelektualna była często wykorzystywana bez podania autora, a jego zespół badawczy był zastraszany przez dochodzenia kryminalne. Główne uznanie w tym okresie pochodziło od towarzystw zawodowych w Europie i USA. Po upadku ZSRR prof. S. Gulyar dokonał również szeregu innowacji i wynalazków z zakresu medycyny i fizjologii elektromagnetycznej. Jego wyniki wyniki otwierają drzwi do szczegółowych analiz i przyszłych badań. Opublikował 20 monografii, 470 referatów i rozpraw oraz uzyskał 11 patentów. Wiele z jego wynalazków zostało zrealizowanych, inne wciąż czekają na realizację. Artykuł powstał na podstawie danych zebranych przez autorów w wyniku wieloletniej, osobistej współpracy, a także na podstawie wspomnień prof. S. Gulyara i przedstawionych przez niego materiałów. W aktywnym życiu brał udział w wielu wyprawach i pracach związanych z promowaniem kultury i historii Ukrainy.
