Aim

This symposium aims to give insight in the specific physical and mental discomforts and disorders that may hamper unrestrictive diving or diving at all of women and children and people with a disability.

After this seminar, the physician will have the knowledge to decide whether women, children and persons with a disability are fit to dive and within a recreational setting their restrictions and limitations.  

The level of this seminar is at least that of an advanced course and therefore may be considered as a master class. A basic course on diving medicine (in the Netherlands e.g. by SHF or VSG) is a prerequisite for physicians.

Besides participants of the Netherlands, we also would like to welcome participants from abroad. We hope that their reduced fee is helpful to enable their attendance.
