[Integrated protection capability afforded by a new type capstan anti-G equipment and anti-G straining maneuver].Space Med Med Eng (Beijing). 1999 Dec; 12(6):406-9.SM
Objective. To investigate the integrated protection capability afforded by a new type capstan anti-G equipment and anti-G straining maneuver, as a result we discussed the feasibility of protection for 8 G 10 s (rapid onset runs at 2 G/s) acceleration using an associated precept with the above both anti-G measures. Method. This study was accomplished using the human centrifuge with rapid onset at 2 G/s. First, we determined the relaxed +Gz tolerance of nine male aviation students, and then determined theirs most + Gz tolerance while thereinto the five aviation students using a new type capstan anti-G suit (NKH) + a new type anti-G valve (NKT) + L-1 anti-G straining maneuver (L-1) and the other four aviation students using a new type capstan counterpressure suit (NDC) + the new type anti-G valve (NKT) + L-1. Result. The most +Gz tolerance of five students was 8.80 +/- 0.27 G while using NKH + NKT + L-1 and was higher than their relaxed +Gz tolerance at 4.60 +/- 0.42 G (P< 0.01) and that the most +Gz tolerance of four students was 8.75 +/- 0.50 G while using NDC + NKT + L-1 and was higher than their relaxed +Gz tolerance at 4.50 +/- 0.46 G (P< 0.01). Conclusion. Pilot will be capable against the 8 G 10 s (rapid onset runs at 2 G/s) effectively using the new type capstan anti +/- G equipment and anti +/- G straining maneuver, and the provided precept has availability.
