Aerospace Medicine Information

Description

Aerospace medicine deals with the medical requirements of humans in atmospheric space, and people who travel by air. Aerospace medicine is a combination of aviation medicine and space medicine. An aerospace medicine physician practices within the branch of preventive medicine, and works with those who have problems or conditions related to air travel, such as air sickness, weightlessness, and life support measures for astronauts, or a baby who has ear pressure problems when traveling on an airplane.
