TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Age associated risks of recreational scuba diving JO - Hawaii medical journal A1 - Smerz, Richard W. SP - 140 EP - 1, 153 VL - 65 IS - 5 N2 - The effect of aging on risk for development of decompression illness in divers has often been reported as an incidental finding in epidemiological analyses of diving accidents. No previous publications have specifically attempted to quantify or qualify those risks if present. This study demonstrates that aging increases risk for injury overall, serious injury in particular, and lessens recovery potential.
