Why the study?

The study aimed to analyze the psychophysiological stress response of air crews during an underwater evacuation training.

Does underwater evacuation training induce a psychophysiological stress response in air crews?

Population

36 participants (39.06 ± 9.01 years) in air crews

Comparison

Before vs after an underwater evacuation training

Discussion

Member takes

Implication

Acute sympathetic activation in underwater evacuation training warrants monitoring in air crews; leaves open optimal mitigation strategies for prospective trials.

Does underwater evacuation training induce a psychophysiological stress response in air crews?

Population

36 air crew participants, mean age 39.06 ± 9.01 years

Intervention

Underwater evacuation training

Comparator

Baseline (before training)

Outcome

Modifications in rating of perceived exertion (RPE), subjective stress perception (SSP), heart rate (HR), blood oxygen saturation (BOS), cortical arousal (CFFT), heart rate variability (HRV), spirometry, isometric hand strength (IHS), and short-term memory (ST-M)surrogate

Underwater evacuation training significantly increases sympathetic nervous system modulation and psychophysiological stress in air crews without negatively affecting cortical arousal.
