Тhe structure of morbidity of fishermen working in different geographical regions

INTRODUCTION: The existing multiple factors of the ship’s environment, together with climatic conditions navigation, have a long and complex effect on body seamen. As result, they often cause significant changes in body. In turn, such can emergence development many diseases. OBJECTIVE: To analyze morbidity trawl fleet fishermen working different regions, possible contributing to occurrence diseases, develop recommendations for reducing diseases disability workers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Arkhangelsk same period when fishery climatogeographic regions was studied. 464 people 4 crews large freezing fishing trawlers aged 25–49 years (average age 41.8±9.5 years) work experience from 3 10 were under monitoring. area is Norwegian Sea (northern climate zone, crew 237 people) Moorish Economic Zone (southern region, 217 people). duration works ranged 168 185 days. voyage reports on-board logbooks (5 times each regions) used as sources information morbidity. Statistics: McNemar criterion comparative analysis between frequency indicators, MannWhitney absolute averages. statistical significance level p<0.05 regarded proven statistically differences compared indicators. RESULTS: seafarers, according initial appeals, had regions. cases temporary tropical turned out be much higher comparison northern ones. At time, average disease majority nosological forms (except skin subcutaneous tissue diseases) no groups sailors. DISCUSSION: Territorial features produce characteristic Among them, greatest contribution are frequent international contacts, peculiarities processing harvested fish, tension adaptation mechanisms due unusual combined hard work. identified causes among require special measures prevent chronic CONCLUSION: Is made about need constant monitoring seafarers determine adaptive during readaptation coastal conditions. Within framework medical support system water transport workers, it necessary take into account adverse professional environment order create high-quality safe
