登船不适(MDD)是一种常见的、良性的、自限性的综合征,许多人从远洋船舶上岸后都会出现这种症状。它的特点是持续的感觉是在一个不稳定的俯仰和滚动甲板上,即使在返回坚实的地面。症状通常在几个小时或几天内消失,但可能持续数周。MDD没有有效的治疗方法,不需要检查,患者可以放心症状是短暂的。我们提出了一个以前健康的22岁男性MDD的情况下,并讨论了MDD的方法在急诊科设置。(C)2006年爱思唯尔公司
Mal de debarquement (MDD) is a common, benign, and self-limited syndrome suffered by many people after disembarkation from an oceangoing vessel. It is characterized by a continuing sensation of being on an unsteady pitching and rolling deck, even after a return to solid ground. Symptoms typically dissipate over several hours or days, but can linger for weeks. There is no effective treatment for MDD, no work-up is required, and patients can be reassured that the symptoms are transient. We present a case of MDD in a previously healthy 22-year-old male, and discuss the approach to MDD in the emergency department setting. (C) 2006 Elsevier Inc.
