In this report, an attempt is made to describe the characteristics and suggest the management in space of possible medical problems which might arise from hazards of space operations; attention will therefore not be given to possible naturally-occurring diseases. Writing is oriented to missions during which, due to the time required to return to Earth, the diagnosis and interim treatment of medical problems will have to be carried out in space. Therefore it is assumed in this report that diagnostic and treatment facilities will be available, and that advanced spacecraft concerned will provide a 'shirtsleeve' environment in. which multidisciplined crews, including medically- trained personnel, will be able to live in - reasonable comfort.

To address the high prevalence and costs associated with low back pain, U.S. Navyphysical therapists currently provide back injury prevention education to requesting commands in the form of the Health Back Program. Although the content of the Healthy Back Program has face validity and is similar to other back education interventions, no explicit evaluation of its effectiveness has been conducted. Because of the need to develop effective and practical health interventions, a formal study is needed. A broader evaluation study will make use of a longitudinal, treatment-control group design to test the effects of the Healthy Back Program on back injuries among Navy recruits. The primary purposes of the present study are to: (a) present findings examining the immediate effect of the Healthy Back Program in changing knowledge about back injury prevention, and (b) provide a baseline assessment of back problems among incoming recruits. Correlates of back pain also are examined to suggest factors that may be amendable to intervention.

This book is designed primarily for the busy emergency physician in search of a practical guide to occupational medicine in the emergency department. Occupational physicians should also find in it a useful perspective on the approach to occupational medicine in a venue not traditionally considered an occupational-medicine setting. Hopefully this text will also throw light onto the heretofore-little-illuminated interface between two crucial specialities.
