Abstract

Perubahan tekanan, suhu, tingkat kelembapan, keadaan imobilisasi, suara bising, turbulensi, dan ekspansi udara di rongga tubuh yang berkaitan dengan perjalanan via udara dapat berdampak pada tubuh manusia. Para penumpang dengan riwayat penyakit jantung harus menyadari risikonya dan melakukan tindakan pencegahan.

 

Changes in pressure, temperature, humidity levels, immobilization, noise, turbulence, and expansion of air in the body cavity associated with air travel can all have an impact on the human body. Passengers with a history of heart disease must be aware of the risks and take the necessary precautions.
