[The changes of pilot's cardianc rhythm indices and components of his operator's activity during modelling flight
Abstract:
The changes of pilot's cardiac rhythm and components of his operator's activity were investigated on the flight simulator under the conditions of modelling the fly over landing with the different centres causing the level of pilot's load. Under such conditions the heart rate was connected mainly with the subjective assessment of his operator's and psychological comfort by the pilot himself an d cardiac rhythm variability was connected with the level of operator's comfort during controlling flight parameters.

Assessment of apical radial pulse
The A-R pulse assessment involves simultaneous evaluation of the apical and radial pulses. When the apical and radial pulse rates vary, this assessment helps identify a pulse deficit.

Assessment of apical pulse
Assessing the apical pulse is a critical nursing procedure, particularly indicated for:
Assessment of radial pulse
The radial pulse, located at the wrist, is often the preferred site for assessing peripheral pulse because of its accessibility and dependability. The process of determining the radial pulse involves several steps:
