Download or read book A Flight Evaluation of an Airborne Physiological Instrumentation System written by Harald A. Smedal and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A physiological instrumentation system capable of recording the electrocardiogram, pulse rate, respiration rate, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures during flight has been developed. This instrumentation system was designed for use during control studies at varied levels of acceleration in order to monitor the well-being of the pilot and at the same time to obtain data for study of the relationships between his various physiological functions and his performance capacity.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical lack of aircrew physiological data has prevented its use in the definition and evaluation of airborne man-machine systems. Recognizing this deficiency, a joint Navy and Air Force program has resulted in the development of a self-contained man-borne In-Flight Physiological Data Acquisition System (IFPDAS). This system is capable of obtaining and recording up to 32 channels of physiological and engineering parameters for flight durations to four hours. A ground based microprocessor provides computer analysis of this data. At present, the Navy is establishing a methodology for the employment of the system, developing analytical software, and collecting operational flight data. Further plans for the IFPDAS include collecting and processing multi-parameter physiological and environmental data from aircrewmen to more thoroughly describe the tactical flight environment and thus support proper development of aircrew life support and weapons systems.

Advisory Group for Aerospace Research and Development and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The respiratory responses of experienced military pilots have been studied during flight in a high performance jet aircraft. The importance and relevance of information about these responses have been reviewed, with particular emphasis in the difficulties of in-flight recording and the history of such experimentation in four specific areas of respiratory physiology: respiratory frequency and flow, added external resistance, hyperventilation and the metabolic cost of flying. In the present study, respiratory variables were measured continuously using an airborne system which recorded the output from physiological and aircraft instrumentation. In order to approach normal respiratory behaviour more closely, a specially designed low resistance breathing system was developed and used in conjunction with a modified infra-red carbon dioxide analyser. A unique feature of the latter, also specially developed, was the ability to calibrate the device during flight. Inspiratory flows (and hence volumes) and expired carbon dioxide tensions were recorded on several occasions in place of carbon dioxide analysis. Three set flight profiles (two general handling and one simulated combat) were precisely defined to allow comparability between subjects. A fourth, less structured but high workload sortie, involving air combat maneuvering (ACM), was flown on two occasions.

This book was released on 1966 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes in detail the study, design and development which lead to the fabrication of prototype and final design physiological instrumentation for measurement of Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV). Environmental performance specitications and mechanical design allows the equipment to be used in either a laboratory or airborne flight test application. The measurement of average PWV is obtained from the information provided by the relative time relation between Electrocardiogram. pulse, phonocardio pulse and peripheral pulse measured at the finger. Peripheral pulse detection is accomplished with infrared optical sensing. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third, and final, volume is devoted to a discussion of monitoring systems. While the applications of physiological monitoring are many and varied, the primary concern here is with viability monitoring, the use of a measurement system to obtain factual, quantitative information about the physiological responses of a subject in a stressful environment, in order to plan protective measures which will ensure the safety and functional capability of that subject in such environments. Included are a description of instrumentation required for the measurement of individual physiological parameters, a discussion of related problems in system design, including simultaneous measurement of several parameters, data transmission or telemetry, and the use of magnetic tape recording as a system adjunct. Basic guidelines of system troubleshooting and interference reduction are also included. Section IV contains a brief survey of additional measurement techniques and data handling considerations which, while not state of the art or standard practice, will undoubtedly affect the field of physiological monitoring in the near future.
