Medical questionnaire for freedivers, sailors and spearfishers

1 Step 1

Read carefully before signing. You are required to complete this additional medical declaration to participate in a diver training program or any diving activity. If you are a minor, you must have a parent or guardian sign this declaration.

The purpose of this medical questionnaire is to ensure that you are fit to dive. Answer with a YES or NO. If you are not sure, answer YES. An affirmative answer indicates a probable pre-existing condition that could affect your diving safety. If one or more of the aspects listed below apply to you, we will ask you to consult a physician, preferably a specialist in underwater medicine, before participating in diving activities.

Within 40 days of completing this medical questionnaire:


1. HAVE YOU TESTED POSITIVE OR PRESUMED POSITIVE FOR COVID 19 (NEW CORONAVIRUS OR SARS-COV2) OR HAVE YOU BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A POTENTIAL CARRIER OF THE CORONAVIRUS?
2. HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED SYMPTOMS COMMONLY ASSOCIATED WITH COVID-19? (FEVER; COUGH; FATIGUE OR MUSCLE PAIN; DIFFICULTY BREATHING; SORE THROAT; LUNG INFECTION; HEADACHE; LOSS OF TASTE; DIARRHOEA)?
3. HAVE YOU VISITED PLACES DECLARED AS HAZARDOUS AND/OR AT RISK OF COVID-19 INFECTION BY THE COMPETENT HEALTH OR LEGISLATIVE AUTHORITIES?
4. HAVE YOU BEEN IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH OR IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE TESTED POSITIVE OR SUSPECTED POSITIVE FOR COVID-19?

The information I have provided about my medical history is accurate to the best of my knowledge. I agree that any omission to provide details of my current or past health status is my responsibility.
 
I also agree to inform Katabasis Freediving and Sailing of any symptoms I experience after completing this declaration and/or after coming into contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 after signing this declaration.

Pay attention

COVID-19 shares many of the symptoms of other severe viral pneumonias, which require a period of convalescence before returning to normal activities – a process that can take weeks or months depending on the severity of the symptoms (1).

MEDICAL RECOMMENDATIONS (2):

  • Freedivers and spearfishers who have been affected by symptomatic COVID-19 should wait a minimum of TWO months, preferably THREE, before resuming activity.
  • Freedivers and spearfishers who have tested positive for COVID-19, but have remained completely asymptomatic, should wait at least ONE month before resuming diving.
  • Freedivers and spearfishers who have been admitted with pulmonary symptoms related to COVID-19 should, after a waiting period of three months, undergo a complete pulmonary function test and cardiac evaluation with echocardiography and exercise testing (exercise electrocardiography) to ascertain normal cardiac function before returning to diving.
