Challenges and innovations in aviation medical support in the new era
SUN Xiqing
Abstract：The characteristics of new aircraft,new combat requirements,and special flight environments pose higher demands on the physical and mental qualities of pilots,bringing new challenges to aviation medical support.Domestic teams have focused on the actual combat needs of aviation units,conducted research on key technologies for aviation medical support,created new simulation training technologies of vestibular function and vestibular illusion,developed high-altitude micro pressure training cabins and underwater escape training equipment,formulated comprehensive prevention and treatment plans for neck and waist injuries,and promoted solutions to key issues that restrict the operational efficiency of pilots.This paper summarizes the technological breakthroughs and theoretical innovations in the field of aviation medical support in China in recent years,as well as the positive role played by the application of these achievements in improving the operational efficiency of pilots,which has certain guiding significance for promoting the disciplinary development of aviation medicine.
