Функциональные резервы организма студентов, отнесенных по состоянию здоровья к спецмедгруппе

Abstract

The relevance of this work is determined by the high prevalence of physical inactivity among students assigned to a special medical group for health reasons. The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of physical education in a special medical group on the functional reserves of students’ body. A group of 20 first-year students was observed. Girls were engaged in physical culture during one school year. The examination at the beginning and end of the observation period included anthropometry, physiometry and functional testing. The heart rate and respiration rate in most girls exceeded the upper limit of the physiological norm; the vital capacity of the lungs did not reach the lower limit of the norm during initial testing. Functional tests showed low results. Statistically significant decrease heart rate and respiration rate increasing the lung capacity was found on re-examination. The results of the functional test have improved. The results obtained led to the conclusion that body’s functional reserves are reduced in students assigned to a special medical group for health reasons. Feasible physical culture classes are accompanied by the expansion of the body’s functional reserves.
