DAN Assists Researcher Conducting Dive Safety Survey

In the fall of 2000, more than 12,000 divers participated in the Safety Survey of Recreational Scuba Divers. A report of those findings was presented at the June scientific meeting of Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society. Several dive researchers and organizations have encouraged the survey‚s principal investigator David F. Colvard, M.D., to conduct a follow-up survey aimed at better understanding divers and their experiences. The new survey will follow up with the same group of divers early each year for three consecutive years.

Dr. Richard Vann, Vice President of DAN Research, said that while the survey is not a DAN study, it will provide important diving safety information, and he encouraged recreational scuba divers to complete it. [Here's what DAN had to say]
