#Health - The mother of a 29-year-old Corkman who died while SCUBA diving in Thailand has called for all Irish secondary school students to be screened for SADS, according to the Irish Independent.

As previously reported on Afloat.ie, Colin Callanan - who had been based in Australia for six years before his death – was diving off the island of Koh Tao off the east coast on Thailand on 12 April last year while on a work trip to the country.

It later emerged that the cause of his death was Sudden Adult/Arrhythmic Death Sundrome, or SADS, a condition widely considered a 'silent killer' of otherwise outwardly healthy young people.

On the first anniversary of his death, his mother Marie is launching a campaign for health screening of all teenagers in Ireland, following a trial at a school in Bandon that identified a number of at-risk cases.
