Application of ECG technology in teaching monitoring and evaluation of flight physiological parameters

AIM To explore the application effect of ECG technology in the teaching of monitoring and evaluation of flight physiological parameters by analyzing the heart rate of students in the course of landing route flight on two different simulated flight platforms.

METHODS Students Grade 2020 majoring in aviation and aerospace medicine served as research subjects and their heart rates in the pre-flight, takeoff, cruise and landing phases of the takeoff and landing route flight on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform and the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform were analyzed and the application effect of ECG technology in teaching monitoring and evaluation of flight biology parameters was evaluated.

RESULTS The students’ heart rate during the takeoff and landing route flight on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform and the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform was significantly higher than that before flight (P<0.01) and the heart rate on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform was significantly higher than that on the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform (P<0.05), indicating that the two simulation flight platforms brought certain flight load to the students and the flight load on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform was higher than that on the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform. Compared with that before flight, some difference was found in the students’ heart rate in the takeoff, cruise and landing phases of flight on the two simulated flight platforms, but no significant difference was found in the heart rate in the cruise phase on the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform. The heart rate in the landing phase was higher than that before flight and in the takeoff and the cruise phases, indicating that the landing phase brought the greatest flight load to the students. The students’ heart rate in the take-off and the landing phases on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform was significantly higher than that on the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform (P<0.05), while no difference was observed in the cruise phase, indicating that the flight load on the CJ-6 Simulation Flight Platform was higher than that on the Microsoft Simulation Flight Platform in the take-off and the landing phases, and the flight difficulty on the two platforms in the cruise phase was equal.

CONCLUSION The application effect of ECG technology in the practical teaching course of monitoring and evaluation of flight physiological parameters is good, which can not only improve students’ scientific research ability and comprehensive quality, but also cultivate students’ aviation medical thinking, which is conducive to the cultivation of military medical talents with practical and innovative ability in the new era under the background of “double first-class” construction.
