CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AMONG MILITARY DOCTORS

Abstract

The relevance of this issue is due to the high risk of cardiovascular diseases in men due to the presence of many risk factors, as well as professional difficulties of military service: Smoking, alcohol consumption, high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity, increased stress during military service, and the tasks of combat training. The objective: to study the adaptive capabilities of the cardiovascular system, to identify the presence and degree of morbidity of the cardiovascular system in soldiers undergoing military service under the contract during active physical training. Materials and methods. 32 military men aged 34 ± 7,2 years were examined in the S. M. Kirov Military Medical Academy. To study the adaptive reserves of the cardiovascular system and the risk of cardiovascular disease authors used «CVD development hazard assessment questionnaire », measurement of blood pressure and pulse measurement before and after exercise. The results of the study showed differences in adaptive capabilities in the structural sample among military personnel undergoing military service under the contract, as well as risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular health is a professionally important quality of military doctors. (bibliography: 5 refs).
