METHOD FOR ASSESSING DEGREE OF ADAPTATION OF CHEMICAL, PETROCHEMICAL AND OIL-REFINING WORKERS HANDLING WORKPLACE HAZARDS AND RISKS Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G01N33/48 G01N33/52 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: spontaneous glow, an induction period and a fast flash amplitude over a period of 5 minutes of recording are measured, and an adaptation risk ratio (ARR) is calculated by formula: ARR=Cn-A/π, wherein: ARR is the adaptation risk ratio; Cn is the spontaneous glow; A is the fast flash amplitude; π is the induction period. If the ARR is 0.066-3.85 standard units, the adaptation is considered to be satisfactory, or compensated; the ARR falling within the range of 3.88-6.5 standard units stands for an adaptation tension; provided the ARR ranges 6.6-9.5 standard units, the adaptation is stated as unsatisfactory, whereas the ARR of 9.6 standard units and more shows an adaptation failure.

EFFECT: more accurate assessment ensured by determining adaptation-based grouping criteria.
