Bir aylık temel askerlik eğitiminin solunum fonksiyonlarına etkisi

Özet: Bu çalışmanın amacı Türk Silahlı Kuvvetleri’nde, askeri tıp fakültesine alınan öğrencilere uygulanan bir aylık temel askerlik eğitiminin solunum fonksiyonlarına etkisini araştırmaktı. Çalışmaya askeri tıp fakültesine yeni başlayan, 79 sağlıklı öğrenci alındı. Eğitim öncesi ve sonrasında spirometri yapılarak FVC (Litre=L), FVC (%), FEV1 (L), FEV1 (%9, FEV1/FVC (L), FEV1/FVC (%), FEF25-75 (L), FEF25-75 (%), FEF25 (L), FEF25 (%), FEF50 (L), FEF50 (%), FEF75 (L), FEF75 (%), PEF (L), PEF (%) parametreleri değerlendirildi. Bununla birlikte dakikadaki nabız sayılarına bakıldı ve sigara alışkanlıkları sorgulandı. Eğitim sonrasında, FEV1/FVC (L) ‘de artış, (p

The effect of one month basic military training on pulmonary function

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of one month basic military training practiced by military medical faculty students on pulmonary function in Turkish Armed Forces. 79 students beginning to Military Medical Faculty were included into the study. A spirometry was performed before and after basic military training and FVC (Liters=L), (%)FVC, FEV1 (L), (%)FEV1, FEV1/FVC (L), (%)FEV1/FVC , FEF25-75 (L), (%)FEF25-75, FEF25 (L), (%)FEF25, FEF50 (L), (%)FEF50, FEF75 (L), (%)FEF75, PEF (L), (%)PEF parameters were evaluated. Pulse rates per minute and smoking status were also recorded. After basic military training, significant increases in FEV1/FVC (L) (p<0.0001), in FEF25-75 (L) (p<0.001), in FEF50 (L) (p=0.004), in FEF50 (%) (p=0.003) ,in FEF75 (%)(p<0.001) and a significant decrease in FVC (p=0,0001) were detected. While the mean pulse rate was 86 ± 10 before basic military training, it was 76 ± 11 after basic military training (p<0.0001). An increase in smoking rate of the subjects from 2.5% to 5.1% was observed. This study suggests that one month basic military training might have some effects on pulmonary function and circulation and the most significant indicators of this effect might be an increase in FEF25-75 and a decrease in pulse rate.
