Swimming at the 2005 Maccabiah Games – Women's 400 metre individual medley

The women's 400 metre individual medley event at the 2005 Maccabiah Games took place on 11 July at the Wingate Institute. This swimming event used medley swimming. Because an Olympic size swimming pool is 50 metres long, this race consisted of eight lengths of the pool. The first two lengths were swum using the butterfly stroke, the second pair with the backstroke, the third pair of lengths in breaststroke, and the final two were freestyle. Unlike other events using freestyle, swimmers could not use butterfly, backstroke, or breaststroke for the freestyle leg; most swimmers use the front crawl in freestyle events anyway.

One heats was held with all swimmers making the final.
