Technology Utilization Office and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Technology Utilization Program designed to transfer technological developments that may have useful commereial applications. From NASA laboratories and contractors, aeronautics and space-related technology is gathered and evaluated. Items which have potential industrial use are made generally available. This survey of computer uses in the field of medicine is one of a series of NASA publications that presents information of direct or indirect interest to the non-aerospace community. ... This report summarizes the areas of medicine in which computers can be employed and examines in detail several cases where computers have been applied in connection with the medical aspects of NASA's manned space flight program. Treated are such problems as those of automated medical data storage and retrieval systems, continuous monitoring and interpretation of electrocardiograms, and computer-aided medical diagnosis. The approach is cautious throughout, with the emphasis almost constantly on ways to permit the computer to perform various clerical functions while leaving critical decisions to a human monitor."--Foreword.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Research into the biomedical variables surrounding safe and efficient manned space flight has revealed the need for the advanced application of computers in the solution of various problems. This book presents manned spaceflight-oriented research that emphasizes the computerized approach both in terms of a general overview and as utilized in the solution of specific problem areas. Since the articles presented here have not previously been made available to the general scientific community, it is believed that this book will preserve and disseminate much knowledge concerning manned space flight research and the general and specifically related application of computers. This organized collection of articles resulted from activities encouraged, and in most cases supported, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The material presented here spans the tenures of George M. Knauf, M.D.; William Randolph Lovelace, II, M.D.; and Brigadier General Jack Bollerud, USAF, MC, in the Office of the Director of Space Medicine, NASA Headquarters. Concurrently, under each of the foregoing Directors, Dr. Jefferson F. Lindsey, Jr., served as Head of the Biomathematical Staff. The efforts of Charles A. Berry, M.D., and A. Duane Catterson, M.D., of the Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas, in furthering the research efforts reported here are to be particularly noted. Likewise, appreciation is expressed to Mr. Walter B. Sullivan, Jr., NASA Headquarters, who was directly concerned as monitor on several of these projects, and to Dr. Mae l\I. Link, NASA Headquarters, for her coordination efforts in expediting the publication of this book."--Page [v].

This book was released on 1960 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The achievement of future manned space flight no longer appears to be subject to serious question. Solution of a broad variety of problems involved in the attainment of manned space flight requires extensive scientific activity and progress--but the time is approaching when the scale of accomplishments will be in balance with the scale of requirements. Because the achievement of space flight also requires that man survive and function productively, one of the most important areas of space research resides in the life sciences, more frequently referred to by the term "space medicine."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is dedicated to the faith that the future will offer hard quantitative measures of the human thought process and affect-emotional system. The symposium from which this volume issues was an opportunity for us to invite a number of our friends to help in collecting some of the current contributions to this belief. The participants and topics weave a mosaic of the future. The selection was made in an attempt to project into the future what is most important in the present and in the relatively recent past in terms of generating hard data of the elusive cognitive-affect systems. We regret, because of editorial constraints, that we have not been able to include some of the outstanding contributions offered by our various chairmen. In particular, we are sorry that this volume does not reflect the thoughts of Robert Williams, R.J. Ellingson, William Fields, and especially those of our esteemed grand marshal, W. Grey Walter. This volume deals initially with the electroencephalographic measure ment of sleep profiles as such profiles may be used to measure the stresses of special environments and special patient populations. Of particular interest is the correlation of sleep profiles with basic endocrine functions. We expect the measurement of sleep profiles to become more of a routine clinical examination in the next few years, as our understanding of this fascinating state of consciousness increases in terms of how it is influenced by real life stresses and disease processes.
