What's the safety stops and decompression times for this diving scenario?

What are the necessary safety stops and decompression times for spending 72 hours (4320 minutes) at 100 feet? I can't find this on my dive charts...

    It would not be on any.

    He would likely be put into a Hyperbaric Chamber and slowly be decompressed. This would all be done with a medical doctor who specializes in dive medicine.
