This paper discusses the hospitalization of aviators at the Naval Regional Medical Center, San Diego, Ca. The areas covered include cancer, trauma, cardiac cases, alcoholics, and the effect of hospitalization on the flying status of aviators. The variety of diagnoses accumulated in 2 years was suprising. Further follow-up of cardiac cases must be pursued, especially post-coronary artery bypass. Alcoholism as a diagnosis in hospitalized patients may be a larger problem than elicited in this series. Hopefully this paper will not be just a statistical study. We should think of prevention and care to decrease the number of aviators who have their wings clipped due to medical problems.
本文讨论了加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥海军地区医疗中心飞行员的住院情况。涵盖的领域包括癌症、创伤、心脏病病例、酗酒者以及住院对飞行员飞行状态的影响。两年内积累的诊断种类令人惊讶。必须对心脏病病例进行进一步随访，尤其是冠状动脉搭桥术后的病例。酗酒作为住院患者的一种诊断，可能是一个比本系列研究中发现的更大的问题。希望本文不仅仅是一项统计研究。我们应该考虑预防和护理措施，以减少因医疗问题而停飞的飞行员数量。
