Methods: The study conducted in 2002 included 67 pilots. Before undergoing preventive medical examinations, they were asked to complete an unstandardized questionnaire on health-related lifestyles. The acquired data were statistically processed using standard statistical methods. Results: The majority of respondents denied smoking or consuming alcohol, and reported participation in at least minimal physical activity; 64.2 per cent were physically active three or more than three times weekly, and the remainder only once weekly. Two/thirds said they had three to five meals per day. On average, the participants were slightly overnourished with total cholesterol levels slightly above normal, decreased atherogenic index and nearly ideal maximal aerobic capacity tested under strain. Favourable effects of physical activity on all risk factors for ischemic heartdisease were established. Conclusion: The results obtained will provide important information needed for planning the scope and structure of preventive medical examinations, and for developing health promotion activities with special emphasis on increasing physical activity and dicouraging bad habits and inappropriate eating practicesNamen: raziskave je bil ugotoviti zdravstveno stanje pilotov slovenskega letalskega prevoznika, predvsem z vidika zdravega načina življenja in na podlagi tega predlagati ustrezne dejavnosti. Metode: Raziskava je potekala v letu 2002 in je vključevala 67 pilotov slovenskega letalskega prevoznika. Vsi udeleženci raziskave so pred opravljenim preventivnim zdravstvenim pregledom izpolnili nestandardiziran vprašalnik o svojem življenjskem slogu. Podatke smoobdelali po ustaljenih statističnih metodah. Rezultat: Večina v raziskavo vključenih pilotov ne kadi, le občasno pije alkoholne pijače, vsi pa so vsaj minimalno telesno dejavni (64,2% jih je telesno dejavnih do 3-krat oz. več kot3-krat tedensko, ostali le do 1-krat tedensko). Dve tretjini jih zaužije dnevno 3 do 5 obrokov hrane. V povprečju so rahlo čezmerno prehranjeni, imajo nekoliko povišan celokupni holesterol, rahlo nižji aterogeni indeks in idealenodstotek dosežena maksimalne aerobne kapacitete pri obremenitvenem testiranju. Ugotovili smo ugoden vpliv telesne dejavnosti na vse dejavnike tveganja za ishemično srčno bolezen. Zaključek: Rezultati nam bodo pomembno vodilo pri določitvi obsega in vsebine njihovih preventivnih zdravstvenih pregledov in usmerjenega spodbujanja zdravja, pri čemer bomo dali poudarek predvsem telesni dejavnosti, razvadam ter neustreznim prehranjevalnim navadamTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za varovanje zdravja RS
