AUTOMATED INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE EVALUATION OF CLIMBERS’ PERFORMANCE UNDER CONDITIONS OF EXTREMELY LOW pO2 OF INHALED AIR

Introduction. Currently, as a result of ever-increasing intensity of human activity, unfavorable environment, the need to perform work in various extreme disturbances, significantly increase physical, mental and emotional stress on the human body, leading to pronounced changes in functional systems. Therefore, the task of studying the adaptation of the human body to work in extreme environments is urgent. The work of climbers is a fairly adequate model for studying the combined effects of hypobaric hypoxia and exercise hypoxia. The need to process large amounts of information necessitates the use of modern computer technology that allows the training process in the training of climbers, which would repeatedly, almost in real time to speed up the processing of survey data and accumulate for further use in determining current status and forecasting regulatory reactions of the body to external and internal disturbances

The purpose of the paper is to develop an automated information system of functional diagnostics using the model of regulation of oxygen regimes of the body and its practical application in the study of highly qualified climbers

Methods. Programming methods for creating an automated information system and methods of functional diagnostics.

Results. On the basis of the model of regulation of oxygen regimes of the organism the automated information system for functional diagnostics of the persons who are in the conditions of extreme disturbances is constructed. The results of approbation of the offered software for research of group of highly skilled climbers are resulted.

Conclusions. The proposed software allows you to use a model of oxygen regimes of the body in real time, i.e. repeatedly accelerates the processing of data obtained during the survey of athletes, allows centralized collection of information for its pre-processing, storage and collective use, allows you to compare the basic parameters characterizing the functional respiratory system during natural sports activities and obtained during ergometric loading,

Key words: methods of functional diagnostics, highly qualified climbers, mathematical model of regulation of oxygen regimes of the organism, human adaptation to work in extreme environment, hypoxibritic hypoxia
