Summary

The study focuses on the practice of recreational scuba diving by people who have obtained medical advice for their practice in the hyperbaric and underwater medicine department of the Brest University Hospital. These people may have no health problem or on the contrary consult because they have a pathology and want a medical advice on the impact of this health problem on their practice: this is the case for about the half of these consultants.

For the latter, there are no data concerning the relevance of a medical advice response and a proposal for an appropriate technical practice framework (restriction of dive depth, duration, etc.). A relevant answer results in a practice without diving accidents or decompensation of the pathology and a decision accepted and respected by the practitioner.

This study aims to analyze the state of health of the service's consultants and medical recommendations formulated at the end of this consultation, by retrospective analysis of the consultation files, and to interview the consultants on their practice of diving, their state of health and any problems encountered since their consultation.

The purpose is to validate the hypothesis that a practice of underwater diving is possible and beneficial, with an acceptable risk in case of a risk factor or pathology using a framework of advice and restrictions of adapted and individualized practice ("sport for health").
