ADAPTATION OF PILOTS AND TECHNICAL ENGINEERING PERSONNEL IN CLIMATE AND GEOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS OF THE FAR NORTH

The aim of the study: to determine the dynamics of a functional state of the body of pilots and the engineering technical staff in the course of military occupational adaptation to new climatic conditions.

Materials and methods. The study enrolled military men aged 24–38 who were split into two groups: the first group (n=34) — the flight personnel, the second group — the engineering technical staff. The course of survey was divided into 3 phases.

Results and discussion. For the duration of follow-up, the control group showed increasing of indices of heart rate, cardiac output, double product and circulatory efficiency in comparison with the flight personnel group. In the first group, adaptation disorders were manifested with reducing scope allocation of attention as well as increasing index of instability of simple sensomotor reaction to photic stimulation.
