Abstract
Background. Currently, not only an increase in the number of various high-speed vehicles, but also the unlimited accessibility of the population to them in terms of gender, age and price parameters, are noted, which contributes to an increase in injuries, the root cause of which is often the insufficiency of the human statokinetic stability system.
Aim. To determine the effectiveness of the course use of physical exercises in combination with normobaric hypoxia in increasing the statokinetic stability of people with symptoms of statokinetic instability when traveling on high-speed public transport.
Material and methods. The study was performed with the participation of 47 practically healthy men (32 — experimental group, 15 — control) aged 18–22 years, who were potential participants of the traffic. In order to increase statokinetic stability, the subjects of the experimental group trained the vestibular apparatus for 2 weeks using a modified test of A.I. Yarotsky in combination with normobaric hypoxia. The subjects of the control group received “false” courses of normobaric hypoxia, without physical training. Statistical processing of the obtained data was carried out using Student's parametric t-test.
Results. As a result of the studies, it was found that the subjects of the experimental group had a 101.0% increase in the tolerance time of continuous cumulation of Coriolis accelerations test while reducing the severity of the sensory, vegetative, somatic components of statokinetic reactions (by 50.0% — feelings of heat, 25.0% — heaviness in the head, 33.4% — dizziness, 40.0% — discomfort in the stomach). The obtained results were also confirmed by the positive dynamics of the indicators of the static stabilometric test of the complex functional computer stabilography.
Conclusion. The use of modified A.I. Yarotsky’s training in combination with normobaric hypoxia helps to optimize the functional state and increase the statokinetic stability of people whose activities involve driving high-speed vehicles.
