Book excerpt: The Canadian Forces has introduced a Life Quality Improvement Programme (LQIP) to counteract the ravages of diseases which arise from risks prevalent in most lifestyles in Western society. These so called 'diseases of choice' will be discussed in terms of their antecedent 'self-imposed risks'. A discussion of the programme concept is given centering around 15 factors and six philosopies deemed essential for success. The programme will evolve in three phases: planning, trial and general implementation, under the direction of the Planning Cell. Central in the programme is the individual assessment which will be composed of various biomeasurements, a Health Hazard Appraisal, a health questionnaire and an interview. In support of this central assessment will be an educational/promotional campaign and a variety of supportive clinics. A general discussion of how we see the programme operating will conclude this paper. We feel that the programme will be cost effective, but that the most important benefits will be in terms of enhanced individual health and overall operational fitness of the Canadian Forces.

Download or read book Hubertus Strughold written by Mark Campbell and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2013 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Hubertus Strughold was an early pioneer of aerospace medicine. He was the Director of the Aeromedical Research Institute of the German Air Ministry in Berlin during World War II. After the war, he was brought to the U.S. as a part of "Operation Paperclip" and was instrumental in the early development of space medicine. His contributions were so fundamental that he is called "The Father of Space Medicine" and the Hubertus Strughold Award is given yearly by the Space Medicine Association for individual achievement in space medicine. Following his death, criticism of his possible involvement in World War II atrocities has emerged and most of his honors have been removed. This book is a detailed and well referenced biography of Dr. Strughold. The details concerning the controversy of his activities in World War II are covered comprehensively for the first time. "We knew only a small part, and remained silent. We know more now and this along with the consciousness: if we would have known it, we would have also been silent." Existential philosopher K. Jaspers, Heidelberg 1947

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of scientific papers presented at the XVIII International Congress of Aviation and Space Medicine held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, from 15-18 September 1969. It is dedicated to General E. de Vries and Dr. K. Vaan drager, President and Vice-President of the Congress, who wished that this unsur passed exchange of scientific information by distinguished authorities of the inter national aerospace medical community be made readily available to all as a valuable source of information. I am deeply grateful to the Congress Committee for honoring me with this editorship, to the authors for submitting generally excellent manuscripts and to the publisher for compiling a book of such high quality. This book contains both Main Theme papers, given by invited lecturers, and selected Free Communications at the Congress. Main Themes were 'physiology of atmospheric pressure' (papers by Ernsting, Meijne, Sluijter, Behnke), 'vestibular problems in aviation medicine' (papers by Melvill Jones, Benson, Oosterveld, Groen, Guedry and Benson, Brandt, Henriksson and Nilsson), 'aviation and cardiology' (papers by Blackburn, Wood) and 'space medicine' (paper by Berry). The Free Communications herein focus on many areas of continuing and timely interest to clinicians and investigators in aerospace medicine. Selection and health maintenance of pilots, medical problems in airline passengers, use of the centrifuge as a therapeutic device, and circadian rhythm effects on man's psychophysiological state receive particular attention.
Download or read book Space Clinical Medicine written by D.E. Busby and published by Springer. This book was released on 1968-07-31 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many real and potential hazards will face astronauts* during operations in space. Some of these hazards might be of little medical significance; others might produce serious medical problems. This book is an initial attempt to describe the characteristics and suggest the management of possible medical problems which might arise from hazards of space operations. Attention is not given here to the so-called 'naturally occurring' diseases. Writing is oriented to future interplanetary missions during which, due primarily to the time required to return to earth, the diagnosis and definitive or interim treatment of medical problems will have to be carried out in space. It is therefore assumed that suitable diagnostic and treatment facilities and medically trained personnel will be available on advanced spacecraft, in which large, multidisciplined crews will be living in a comfortable, 'shirt-sleeves' environment. To lay the groundwork of Space Clinical Medicine, a field in which very little has been written and essentially no experience gained to date, it was found necessary to consider clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of possible medical problems in space. Wherever necessary, various hazards of space operations are defined and analysed in order to determine their possible medical effects. The patho physiologic characteristics of medical problems are discussed, frequently in detail, to provide the rationale for their prevention and treatment.

Book excerpt: The volume contains the text, discussion and technical evaluation of papers presented at the AGARD Aerospace Medical Panel Meeting which was held on 16-20 September 1974, in Pozzuoli (Naples), Italy. The meeting was convened to highlight areas illustrative of the current status in aerospace medicine and to indicate some of the directions in which this field will proceed in the coming years. Eight papers were presented treating a broad range of topics, including such considerations as habitability factors in the design of future space systems, ejection problems, and health and career management issues in the military services. Some of the papers were highly applied in nature, and some reported research at a basic level. All were concerned with the medical support of man in new and future aerospace systems.
