ECG and heart rate during helicopter underwater escape training (HUET) of novice trainees
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION In many countries it is a requirement for those working in the military or offshore oil industry to undertake Helicopter Underwater Escape Training (HUET). The staged, incremental training culminates in simulated ditching in which the trainees escape from a submerged, inverted mock up of a helicopter. Usually the water is warm and the duration of breath holding required to make an escape is short (<15s).The ditching is undertaken several times to improve confidence and consolidate the training. Repeated cold immersions have been shown to reduce the heart response and discomfort (Golden & Tipton, 1988).

Desensitizing a pilot with a phobic response to required helicopter underwater escape training.
INTRODUCTION A systematic desensitization program designed to help aircrew who have a phobic anxiety of the Helicopter Underwater Escape Training (HUET) has been developed. CASE PRESENTATION A student pilot presented with a severe phobic anxiety of the HUET course--a result of a being trapped underwater on a marine survival training course. A treatment team was assembled and concluded his pho...
متن کاملA PCA/ICA based Fetal ECG Extraction from Mother Abdominal Recordings by Means of a Novel Data-driven Approach to Fetal ECG Quality Assessment
Background: Fetal electrocardiography is a developing field that provides valuable information on the fetal health during pregnancy. By early diagnosis and treatment of fetal heart problems, more survival chance is given to the infant.Objective: Here, we extract fetal ECG from maternal abdominal recordings and detect R-peaks in order to recognize fetal heart rate. On the next step, we find a be...
