Health problems connected with using means of transport
Bouchner, Karel ; Hrnčíř, Evžen (advisor)
Modern transportation does not only advantages for easy and fast avaible moving to remote destinations. So it may cause any level of health risks. Well known and most mentioned health problems in connection with transportation are certainly very dangerous respiratory infection. These diseases are feared problems because of their ease of dissemination. Everyone will immediately imagine a global influenza or SARS pandemic, spreading by air travel and total globalization very fast. Also pulmonary embolism in connection with travel thrombosis is a media grateful theme, although the danger to passengers without risk factors is relatively small. However passengers are threatened by another equally signifiant, but often overlooked, health risks I would refer. In this respect I am targeting on non-specific health consequences of chronic noise (not only in transport or work, but also in environment) on which the discussion has only just begun. In the other hand there are patiens suffering from back pain, one of the most common lament. This work deals also with psychological aspect of health disorders associated with travel. Travel sometimes brings people health problems which needs know, prevent and treat.
