Summary:The authors consider factors and risk sources in long and superlong (interplanetary) missions, conceivable effects of extended exposures in microgravity, and probability of diseases in the crew. They also lay down the basic principles of medical care, including surgery, to be applied in the interplanetary mission, and propose a nomenclature of key means and equipment for the therapeutic and emergency medical care, and a configuration of a medical compartment.
