To the general physician, the problem of motion sickness typically is presented as a request for advice on how to avoid motion sickness when travelling, or during leisure activities such as gliding or sailing. More urgently, a doctor aboard ship in rough weather may be confronted with the need to treat individuals prostrated by repeated vomiting as a result of sea sickness. The military doctor may have to deal with the operational problem of air sickness in trainee aircrew, sea sickness in sailors, or motion sickness among troops transferred by air, in enclosed army personnel carriers, landing craft or tanks. Finally, because motion sickness may have financial implications by contributing to the failure rate in a costly training program, medical advice may be sought in order to minimize the economic problem of wastage in training. These and other factors are considered in the diagnosis and prophylactic treatment of motion sickness.
