ABSTRACT
In experimental conditions the authors have modelled the state of acute hypoxia in pilots with disorders of high psychic functions. In the result of these researches it was found out that the changes of peak frequency of alpha rhythm anticipated the slow delta and theta rhythms. This EEG characteristic feature could be used for the development of a device which would control these states in pilots.

Medical results of inflight cardiovascular measurements made in the 6th prime crew at rest and during provocative graded bicycle exercises and LBNP tests are presented. The methods of electrocardiography, tetrapolar rheography, kinetocardiography, arteriovenous pulsography and tacho-oscillography have been used to examine the cosmonauts. Together with regular cardiovascular changes typical of microgravity effect the individual peculiarities of developing the control mechanisms are noted. Thus in one of the cosmonauts a number of symptoms responsible for a decreased venous return. As a whole the functional state of the cardiovascular system on all flight stages was characterized by a sufficiently high physiological level.
