Abstract 

Topic

These concept analyses explore the threshold limit values of the major conceptual composites comprising the aerohemodynamics theory, namely, acceleration, barotrauma, gaseous toxicities, thermostability, and radiation hazards.

Purpose

This theory forms the basis for nursing practice in the flight environment. The sources of information are reference texts, National Aeronautics Space Administration, and Air Force research.

Conclusion

Concept analysis of these variables will enable further research into the flight environment's effects upon humans.

Keywords: Flight nursing, Aerohemodynamics theory, Concept Analyses
