A multiphasic medical screening program was conducted on 197 qualified U.S. Navy divers. For this cross-sectional study each individual passed through several phases of examination: personal background and history, personal medical history, psychological testing, physical examination, anthropometry, audiometry, blood chemistry and hematology, pulmonary function tests, electrocardiography, roentgenography, and vision testing. The data are presented in a descriptive format. The results of most of the examinations were normal. However, decrements in auditory function were observed at low and high frequencies. Values for several pulmonary function tests were high in comparison to those reported in the general population. Obesity was prevalent as determined by clinical examination and anthropometric measurements. These findings suggest the feasibility of incorporating data from comprehensive periodic medical surveillance of occupational diving populations into longitudinal investigations of diver health.
对197名合格的美国海军潜水员进行了多阶段医学筛查项目。在这项横断面研究中，每个人都要经过几个检查阶段：个人背景和经历、个人病史、心理测试、体格检查、人体测量学、听力测定、血液化学和血液学、肺功能测试、心电图、X线摄影和视力测试。数据以描述性形式呈现。大多数检查结果正常。然而，在低频和高频处观察到听觉功能下降。与普通人群报告的数值相比，几项肺功能测试的值较高。根据临床检查和人体测量结果确定肥胖很普遍。这些发现表明，将职业潜水人群全面定期医学监测的数据纳入潜水员健康纵向调查是可行的。
