title: [EEG screening of candidates for underwater activity].
abstract: Following a review of a number of EEC recording technique, a screening technique for candidates for sporting and/or professional underwater activities is proposed in replacement of the routine examinations which are considered unsuitable. Modalities are described involving basic recordings in hyperpnoea and 12 tests in apnoea. Examples are given and the practical advantages of the proposed technique are discussed in the light of experience.
