PURPOSE:
Assessment of efficiency in using telemedical
technologies for getting information from ISS RS
crews for medical support of human space flights and
information support of life science flight studies.
OBJECTIVE:
Conduct of several experimental sessions onboard
ISS RS for filming Russian cosmonauts’ dermal integument
and mucous membrane.
EXPECTED RESULTS:
Project implementation will enable to enhance
an efficiency in medical monitoring of human space
flights, add to practice of medical support advanced
methods and technologies for transmission of real-time
information and standardize information support of life
science studies onboard the ISS RS.
EXPERIMENT RESULTS:
The following examinations are carried out during
the experimental session:
- study of small skin sites;
- otorhinolaryngologic examinations (examination of
external acoustic meatus, tympanic membranes, examination
of nasal passages);
- stomatologic examination of gums and teeth.
Video data is recorder on hard disk of computer RSE-Med
and copied to PCMCIA memory card, which will be returned to
the ground upon completion of the Expedition.
