Aims:
1. To discern the level of ground-assistance (remote guidance) necessary, if any, when using minimally-trained caregivers to assess and treat a patient during an extensive communication time delay.
2. To determine whether non-physicians can autonomously assess and treat a patient with minimal training.
3. To determine whether non-sonographers can efficiently collect useful ultrasound imagery with minimal training and remote guidance.
4. To determine whether the available similar-to-current-ISS resources are sufficient for assessing and treating these exploration-relevant medical conditions.
5. To determine whether written procedures with imagery are sufficient to guide autonomous non-physicians to efficiently and effectively assess and treat a patient.
Integration/Unique Aspects:
ExMC will use the data from these evaluations as part of their preparation for the ground base test of the Exploration Medical System Demonstration (EMSD).
