[Effect of actoprotectors on the work capacity of operators during modeling of various factors of space flight].

This paper presents experimental findings indicating that bemithyl, an actoprotective agent, has a beneficial effect on the health status and work capacity of operators during simulated space flight and 56-hour continuous work. The drug enhanced psychophysiological tolerance of the operators and improved the quality of their work: the quality of their compensatory tracking was on the average 10% higher, the number of errors of their porsuit tracking was 1.8 times lower, and the time of visual signal detection was 2.4 times shorter as compared to the placebo controls.
