Record #193165:

Reasons and frequency of visits to the ship's doctor by passenger and crew member of cruise ships in polar waters / Helmut W. Hoyme, Victor Benno Meyer-Rochow.

Title: Reasons and frequency of visits to the ship's doctor by passenger and crew member of cruise ships in polar waters / Helmut W. Hoyme, Victor Benno Meyer-Rochow.
Author(s): Hoyme, Helmut W.
Meyer-Rochow, Victor Benno.
Date: 2011.
In: Polar Record. (2011.), Vol. 47(240) (2011)
Abstract: Presents analysis of visits to on-board doctor's surgery (by both passengers and crew) relating to 142 days of polar cruising. Despite differences in age structure (passengers were mostly 60 years of age or older, while crew were predominantly 20-30 years old) typically geriatric problems were seen in very few passengers. Common cold related complaints dominated in crew members, while passengers suffered more frequently from sea- and motion sickness and had slightly more respiratory and orthopaedic complaints.
