Ep141: Space Medicine- Part 2

The record for the longest space-flight is held by physician-cosmonaut Valeri Polyakov. Back in 1994-95, he spent 437 days on the Mir space station and grew 4 centimetres in height through elongation of his spine in micro-gravity. Polyakov had an uncomfortable ride back to Earth in the very precisely customised descent module.  Microgravity also causes demineralization of weight-bearing bones that is faster than age-related decline. But the cosmonaut had worked out religiously for the entire mission and after his capsule parachuted to the ground he made a point of walking from it relatively unassisted. One of the main objectives of the marathon flight had been to prove that walking proudly onto the Martian surface after a 9-month journey might be possible, given it only has 37 percent the gravitational force that Earth does.   Microgravity additionally results in adaptive plasticity of the vestibular and sensorimotor networks and deconditioning of the cardiovascular system. Indeed, several years ago there was a medical emergency aboard the international space station when an ultrasound investigation revealed thrombosis of the internal jugular vein in one astronaut. In this podcast we discuss how management of cases like this has many parallels with remote medicine on earth. Part 1 of this series (https://www.racp.edu.au/pomegranate/v...) examined the risks of cosmic radiation and spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome among other things.   Guests Professor Gordon Cable (Australian National University; Co-founder, Human Aerospace) Dr Alicia Tucker FACEM, FAWM (Royal Hobart Hospital; University of Tasmania) Dr John Cherry DPhil.
