Abstract
The article substantiates the relevance of studying the problem of early development and progression of hypertension among the flight personnel of the Russian Aerospace forces. The article analyzes the incidence of hypertension among aircrew in comparison with the incidence in the Armed forces and the population of the country. The article considers the most significant signs of early development and course of hypertension, which lead to early disqualification from flight work for medical reasons. The total risk of developing cardiovascular complications is assessed on the scale for assessing the risk of fatal cardiovascular disease over 10 years in the examined individuals with previously established and newly detected arterial hypertension and high levels of stress. Attention is drawn to the high prevalence of modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular pathology among the examined individuals against the background of occupational stress. It was found that people with diagnosed hypertension under the influence of a high level of professional stress are characterized by irrational changes in eating behavior, high prevalence of Smoking, increased alcohol consumption and low physical activity. In addition, stress-induced hypertension indicates a high risk of developing cardiovascular complications in the next 10 years and necessitates additional expansion of the range of measures for its prevention and correction. Practical recommendations for preventing the development and progression of hypertension among the flight personnel of the Russian Aerospace forces are presented. These recommendations are based on the analysis of the incidence of hypertension in flight personnel at the present stage, as well as the identified risk factors for developing hypertension, taking into account the specifics of flight work and conditions of military service of these specialists.
