+Gz protection of a new bladder anti-G system.

OBJECTIVE: A new bladder anti-G system was developed to get better +Gz protection. The purpose of this study was to assess the +Gz protection afforded by it on the centrifuge. METHOD: Six male subjects using the new bladder anti-G system were exposed to 10-15 s ladder-shaped +Gz profiles without anti-G straining maneuver (AGSM), then exposed to + 5-9 Gz simulated aerial combat maneuver (SACM) with leg straining. RESULT: The +Gz protection and the +Gz-time tolerance were obtained. The anti-G effectiveness of the advanced bladder system was 5.33 +/- 0.26 G. All subjects passed the +5-9 Gz SACM, but the effort and fatigue were lower. CONCLUSION: The +Gz protection afforded by this system is high. The suggested scheme of the new bladder anti-G system is feasible.

[+Gz protection of the on board oxygen generating system (OBOGS) and anti-G equipment].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the +Gz protection of the on board oxygen generating system (OBOGS) and anti-G equipment. METHOD: Physical and physiological tests of the OBOGS and anti-G equipment were accomplished using human centrifuge. +Gz tolerance of ten male subjects with or without the anti-G suit, pressure breathing for G (PBG) and OBOGS were determined. RESULT: The performance of the OBOGS and anti-G equipment fulfilled the requirements. The +Gz protections of the anti-G suit, PBG, and anti-G system were 2.08 G, 1.92 G, and 3.92 G, respectively. CONCLUSION: The +Gz protection of the OBOGS and anti-G equipment satisfy the performance requirements of high performance aircraft.

[Pathologic changes induced by sustained acceleration].

This paper mainly reviewed sustained +Gz acceleration-induced pathologic changes in various organ systems. Some of them are reversible and some may result in damage. Degree of the pathologic changes are related to G levels, G onset rates, duration of G exposure and individual difference factors. With raise of aircraft performance, acceleration problem is becoming more and more serious. Aviation medical workers should pay good attention to these changes and the use of high performance anti-G measures in order to ensure safety and performance of the pilots.
