Physiological-hygienic standards of motor activity of students of higher education institutions and scientific substantiation of ways optimization in the context of formation of effective public health system

Abstract

The aim: Scientific substantiation of physiological-hygienicstandards of motor activity of students of higher education institutions and ways of its optimization in the context of formation of an effective public health system. Materials and methods: The criteria for physiological-hygienic assessment of students’ motor activity were: the values of daily energy, the quantity of locomotions, the duration of dynamic component in daily budget of time. Results: The data of complex assessment of the modern students’ motor activity studying in the institution of higher medical education showed its low level. At the same time the application of measures aimed at optimizing motor activity of students ensured an improvement (p<0.01-0.001) of the functional characteristics of the mobility and balance of nervous processes and index of coordination of movements. Conclusions: In the course of the researches the physiological-hygienic standards of motor activity of students are scientifically substantiated: values of daily energy consumption – 9000-11000 kJ in young women, 11500-13500 kJ in young men, the quantity of locomotions in the daily cycle – 14000-18000 steps and 15000-19000 steps respectively, the duration of dynamic component in daily budget of time – 130-180 min and 140-190 min respectively
