Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2009
An increased awareness of the need for safety in medicine in general and in surgery in particular has prompted comparisons between the cockpit and the operating room. These comparisons seem to make sense but tend to be oversimplified.Attempts in healthcare to mimic programs that have been credited for the safety of commercial aviation have met with ...

Pilot fatigue is a significant, but often under-reported problem in both civilian and military aviation operations. Although estimates vary, official statistics indicate that fatigue is involved in at least 4-8% of aviation mishaps, and surveys of pilots and aircrew members reveal that fatigue is an important concern throughout today's 24/7 flight ...

The American Journal of Medicine, 1948
Abstract The technical advances in aircraft are lessening the number of medical contraindications for flying. The increased efficiency of oxygen systems and the increasingly extensive use of such systems has made it safer now than formerly for the patient with hypoxia to fly.

AbstractAviation accidents due to alcohol consumption by aircrew appear to be rare, especially in commercial aviation. However, a small proportion of general aviation accidents are attributable to alcohol use by aircrew, and aircrew are not well informed about the metabolism of alcohol and its effects on performance. Furthermore, there is evidence that

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1952
1. Although fractures and dislocations of the talus have been described since 1608 the rarity of the more severe and complicated injuries has meant a dearth of accurate descriptions or classification in the literature. 2. A series of 228 injuries of the talus occurring in members of the Royal Air Force between 1940 and 1943 has been reviewed. 3.

Health Physics, 1989
The control of high-speed aircraft is a demanding task in which rapid decisions, based on visually acquired information, must frequently be made. Glare, both direct and veiling, is a prime cause of visual degradation in flight. The visual effects of glare are discussed together with means of reducing its consequences.

Role of Aviation Infrastructure in Aviation Operation
The development of aviation infrastructure demands substantial investments, which can be a daunting challenge, especially for developing nations with limited financial resources. Hence, strategic investments in aviation infrastructure become imperative to fuel economic growth. This chapter embarks on an in-depth exploration of the multifaceted world ofSatyansh Singh +2 more
