Standardizing electroencephalogram (EEG) in aircrew selection is crucial due to a lack of current criteria. Developing extensive EEG databases can improve diagnostic accuracy and prognostic insights for aviation safety.

Area of Science:

  • Aviation Medicine
  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Current diagnostic electroencephalogram (EEG) methods for aircrew selection lack standardized protocols and universally applicable criteria.
  • Clinical EEG studies may not be directly applicable to aviation settings, and recent research on serial EEGs in aircrew is scarce.
  • Existing population-based EEG studies in healthy individuals are often underpowered to determine the significance of abnormal EEG findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the need for standardized EEG investigations in aircrew selection and certification.
  • To propose a cost-effective method for obtaining extensive serial EEG data in aircrew.
  • To enable the derivation of prognostic inferences regarding pathological EEG discharges.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing advanced digital video/EEG recording technology for extended periods, including during flight simulator sessions.
  • Implementing standardized data exchange formats for EEG records.
  • Employing automated detection of pathological grapho-elements within EEG data.

Main Results:

  • Suggests that advanced digital video/EEG recording is cost-effective for extended monitoring in aircrew.
  • Proposes the creation of extensive, validated databases of serial video/EEG records in aircrew.
  • Indicates the potential for deriving prognostic inferences from these databases over time.

Conclusions:

  • Standardization of EEG investigations and criteria is essential for effective aircrew selection and certification.
  • The proposed digital video/EEG methodology offers a cost-effective approach to building comprehensive aircrew EEG databases.
  • Such databases can significantly enhance the ability to make prognostic inferences about the significance of EEG abnormalities, improving aviation safety.
