Thermography - A Method for the Evaluation of the Resistance of Military Pilots, Parachutists and Divers at Hypo and Hyperbaric Exposure

Abstract

A mixed team from the AMI and the NIAR has developed a long - term activity in the field of the hypo and hyperbaric exposure of aeronautical staff and divers - relevant to the topics of the HFM Symposium in the field of "Selection and Training". The subject of the work refers to the evaluation of the efficiency of thermography (a non-invasive and not often used investigation method) in the study of the circulatory system answer to the pressure variation during the exposure of the human body to hypo and hyperbaric conditions. Using the thermography we tried to build-up a monitoring system of the physiological and circulatory system parameters changes at hypo and hyperbaric exposure.
