Abstract:
Objective To elucidate the characteristics of dermatosis in air force pilots and to improve its prevention and treatment scientifically. Method We carried out an investigation on 288 air force pilots hospitalized for dermatosis over the past 20 years. Results The results showed that 57.99% of the patients studied were admitted to hospital due to psychoimmunodermatosis, with high person-time (61.39%) and significantly longer average hospitalization time than that of the patients with the other two kinds of dermatoses. With improvement in flight skill and intensity as well as prolongation of flight time, the incidence and number of relapse of psychoimmunodermatosis in pilots were correspondingly increased. Conclusion The results indicate that among various dermatoses, psychoimmunodermatosis should become the focus of prevention and treatment as far as air force pilots are concerned. Besides drug treatment, we should also put emphasis on health education and psychological persuasion.
