The First Sport Medical Courses – Intermediate

(Special for Ski Sport)

 

Purpose of holding this course and introducin

The final purpose of organizing the sport medical courses (special for ski) is to improving the Medical knowledge which is related to the Ski Sport. The courses are being held in 3 different levels: Basic, Intermediate & Advance.Because of some particular situations such as strong cold weather, altitude, environmental injuries like avalanche, and sometimes being far away of the Urban Medical Centers, it is absolutely necessary to give related knowledge to our medical society. The Medical Committee of the I.R. Iran Ski Federation had organized the Basic courses during the year 2003 & 2004 with the number of 135 participants. The report of these courses was informed to the members of the FIS Medical Committee in the Medical Meeting in Strasburg.

After corresponding with Mr. Dr. Bengt Saltin, the chairman of the FIS Medical Committee, he encouraged us for preparing the Intermediate courses in March 2005 and it is our great honor to meet him in Iran.

Intermediate Courses is being organized for the following participants:

-         Having the Basic Certificate (those who were not able to participate in Basic course should pass the entrance exam related to Basic items).

-         Doctors and Medical educated groups from other countries should have the certificate of the NOC or Ski Associations.
