The previous DAN Annual Diving Report was the 2012-2015 edition that analyzed data over a four-year period from 2010-2013. Similar to the previous edition, this report is composed of four main sections: Diving Fatalities, Diving Injuries, the Diving Incident Reporting System and Breath-hold Diving Incidents. Each segment presents data and includes summaries and vignettes of pertinent cases to better understand why and how injuries occur.
