Abstract

Obviously seamen working on board can not seek medical attention at sea. Therefore, the primary prevention of diseases is needed for seamen, especially on board. This experiment was performed to monitor the health-related information of crew on board using VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) satellite communications and internet. 5 crew of the training ship measured their blood pressure, pulse, body temperature, body weight, percent of body fat and step counts a day and inputted those data to the computer on board. The doctor interviewed them by TV conference system. The health management for seamen on board was indicated possible using the satellite communications and internet.
