Abstract:
Objective To analyze the spectrum of anus disease during the medical selection of flying cadets and com-pare the medical standard between US Air Force and Chinese Air Force in order to improve the system of medical selection. Methods The data on flying cadets of Chinese Air Force medical selection from 2012 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed and these data were re-analyzed by medical standards for US Air Force flying cadets.Results Ninety students were elimi-nated because of anal disease,including 65 hemorrhoids,14 fistula and 11 fissure.The rate of disqualification from 2012 to 2015 was 48.28%, 33.33%, 31.37%, 39.69%and there was no significant statistical difference between each two years (x2 =2.6154,P=0.4548).There was statistically significant difference(P=0<0.05)in hemorrhoids standards between CAF and USAF,and significant difference in fistula and fissure standards.Conclusion Compared with Chinese medical se-lection standards,the US Air Force standards focus on whether the symptoms of disease have effect on air safety and effi-ciency.To improve our medical selection standards,we need to learn from foreign air forces and take our own conditions into account.
