Zagorodnikov G.G., Zhekalov A.N., Zagorodnikov G.N., Agaphonov P.V.

Abstract

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.

INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENTS

THE QUESTION OF FURTHER IMPROVEMENT OF DIAGNOSTICS AND TREATMENT OF SURGICAL PATIENTS ON NAVY SHIPS DURING LONG CRUISES

Mosyagin I.G., Popov V.A., Pleskach V.V., Soroka A.K.

Abstract

Aim: substantiation of the need to create a system that allows the ship’s doctor to receive timely consultation assistance.

Materials and methods: When developing the technique, the method of diagnosing diseases of the abdominal organs on ships at sea using a computer, proposed by V. F. Ozerov (1984), was used.

Results and discussion: a method of collecting and transferring the patient data to the medical service of the fleet, Clinical Navy Hospital (CNH) of the fleet is proposed.

ANALYSIS OF CENTRAL SELF-FUNCTIONS AS PREDICTORS OF ADAPTATION IN NAVAL SPECIALISTS FROM DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

Soshkin P.A., Belov V.G., Zabrodskyi D.S.

Abstract

Introduction. The study of the central self-functions, manifested by an integral system of forms of mental activity, is highly relevant in terms of optimizing the adaptation of naval specialists.

Purpose: to assess the central self-functions as predictors of adaptation in naval specialists from different age groups.

Materials and methods. 159 naval specialists were examined, divided into 3 age groups — group 1 (n=33) — persons aged 25 to 30 years, group 2 (n=68) — persons aged 31 to 40 years, and the third group (n=58) — persons aged 41 to 45 years, whose central self-functions were studied using Ammon’s self-structural test.

Results and discussion. It has been established that the constructive central I-functions of naval specialists contribute to the optimization of the adaptation of naval specialists, while the destructive central I-functions prevent this. The deficient central self-functions of naval specialists occupy an intermediate position between constructive and destructive indicators.

Conclusion. To optimize the adaptation of naval specialists, it is advisable to carry out corrective measures aimed at shifting the central self-functions towards design indicators.

PHYSIOLOGICAL SUBSTANTIATION OF DETERMINING THE RESISTANCE OF DIVERS TO THE TOXIC EFFECT OF OXYGEN USING ORAL STRESS RENAL TESTS

Zverev D.P., Myasnikov A.A., Shitov A.Y., Chernov V.I., Andrusenko A.N., Klenkov I.R., Israfilov Z.M.

Abstract

Aim of the work: to identify changes in renal function under the action of dosed hyperoxia using oral stress renal tests and to determine the relationship between the state of the functions of the excretory system and the body’s resistance to toxic effects of oxygen.

Materials and methods. A survey of 44 men was carried out. Changes in water-electrolyte metabolism and renal function were determined using developed oral renal stress tests.

Results and discussion. It has been shown that the normal functioning of the excretory system plays an important role in the high human resistance to the toxic effects of oxygen.

TAMERON (SODIUM AMINODIGYROPHTHALAZINEDIONE) AS A POTENT IAL COMPLEX DRUG FOR THE TREATMENT OF CORONAVIRUS INFECTION COVID-19

Ermakov A.M., Tzar’kova E.A., Ermakova O.N., Tzar’kov A.N.

Abstract

Coronavirus infection has caused a global pandemic with high mortality rates among the population of different countries. Drugs for non-specific immunotherapy of this infection based on sodium aminodihydrophthalazinedione (in particular, Tameron) were not considered for this purpose. It has immunomodulatory properties, and its use is not accompanied by side effects. Tameron can become a potential complex drug for the treatment of coronavirus infection COVID-19 and its use is especially important in confined spaces on ships and vessels of the military and civilian fleets.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

REQUIRED SAMPLE SIZE FOR COMPARING PROPORTIONS IN TWO INDEPENDENT SAMPLES

Grjibovski A.M., Gorbatova M.A., Narkevich A.N., Vinogradov K.A.

Abstract

This paper continues our series of articles on required sample size for the most common basic statistical tests used in biomedical research. Sample size calculations are rarely performed in research planning in Russia often resulting in Type II errors, i.e. on acceptance on false null hypothesis due to insufficient sample size. The most common statistical test for analyzing proportions in independent samples is Pearson’s chi-squared test. In this paper we present a simple algorithm for calculating required sample size for comparing two independent proportions. In addition to manual calculations we present a step-by-step guide on how to use WinPepi and Stata software for calculating sample size for independent proportions. In addition, we present a table for junior researchers with already calculated sample sizes for comparing proportions from 0,1 to 0,9 by 0,1 with 95% confidence level and 80% statistical power.

CURRENT ISSUES CONCERNING EVACUATION OF SICK AND INJURED PEOPLE FROM SEACRAFTS

Bumay O.K., Torshin G.S., Malinina S.V.

Abstract

Purpose: to analyze information on cases of evacuation of seafarers from seacrafts for medical reasons and make proposals on improvement of health maintenance for personnel of sea and river crafts.

Materials and methods: the analysis of information on cases of evacuation of seafarers from seacrafts for medical reasons for the period from 2014 to 2019 was carried out.

Results and discussion: increase in mean annual rate of evacuation and absolute number of evacuated seafarers for the period from 2014 to 2019 in comparison with previous period from 2009 to 2013 was revealed. Maximum number of evacuated seafarers among five sea basins for the period from 2014 to 2019 was observed in Far Eastern and Northern sea basins and is equal to 40% and 21% of the total number of evacuated seafarers. The formation of universal health care for sick and injured people at seacrafts in the Russian Federation as well as adoption of joint normative legal documents of Ministry of Labour and Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation on issues relating to organization of medical evacuation and application of telemedicine technologies is required.
