What’s involved in a GB Fit to Climb Medical?
- Questionnaires
Climbers complete self-assessment surveys, such as the Low Energy Availability questionnaire (LEAF-Q for females or LEAM-Q for males) and the Eating Disorder questionnaire (EDE-Q). These are attached as below and would be required to be completed before the consultation, so that the doctor can work out the individual scores alongside a physical assessment. - Physical Assessment
This would involve Height, weight, BMI, heart rate, and blood pressure to be recorded whilst seated at rest. - Medical Review
A GMC-registered medical practitioner reviews the questionnaires and conducts a physical examination. - Certification
If the climber meets the required standards, the practitioner certifies them as “Fit to Climb.” If not, further testing or investigation may be recommended.
