РОЛЬ МЕДИЦИНСКОЙ СЕСТРЫ В ПОДГОТОВКЕ КОСМОНАВТОВ К ПОЛЕТУ

THE ROLE OF A NURSE IN PREPARING ASTRONAUTS FOR FLIGHT

Flight into space is a complex process. Preparation for it begins long before the launch of the rocket, while the work of medical staff lasts from the moment the cosmonaut prepares for the flight to the descent of the spacecraft and the adaptation of the expedition member to the changed environment. The role of a nurse is multidimensional. Nurses assist specialist doctors in examinations, conduct research and stress tests in preparation for a flight, and control possible risks. They also assist surgeons during operations. The nurse has the role of equipping astronauts.
