[Motion sickness in the aerospace environment].

G Rotondo

    Minerva Medica
    |October 15, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    Air sickness, a form of motion sickness, results from irregular plane movements stimulating the vestibular system. This causes neurovegetative and neuropsychological symptoms, but prevention and treatment options are available.

    Area of Science:

    • Aerospace Medicine
    • Human Physiology
    • Vestibular System

    Context:

    • Space sickness is a unique form of motion sickness experienced during space flight.
    • Air sickness, or plane sickness, is a common issue during atmospheric flight.
    • Understanding the aetiopathogenesis of motion sickness is crucial for crewed space missions and air travel.

    Purpose:

    • To discuss the aetiopathogenesis of space sickness and general motion sickness.
    • To specifically analyze the causes and symptoms of air sickness.
    • To outline the prevention and treatment strategies for air sickness.

    Summary:

    • Air sickness stems from abnormal vestibular, visual, and somatosensory stimulations due to irregular aircraft movements.
    • Symptoms include neurovegetative effects like nausea and vomiting, and neuropsychological effects such as drowsiness and headache.
    • The paper reviews the underlying mechanisms and discusses management options.

    Impact:

    • Provides insights into the physiological basis of motion sickness in different environments.
    • Informs the development of countermeasures for air and space travel.
    • Contributes to the understanding of sensory conflict and its effects on human health.
