Intervention and rescue activity in special conditions can be conducted under special requirements only by trained and authorized personnel using personal protective breathing equipment.
The decisive factor for the success of an intervention and rescue operation in toxic or chemically aggressive environments lies, among others, in optimum and efficient design of rescue personnel?s training process, in connection with their testing in environments with high temperature and humidity.
Heat is normally generated as a result of metabolic processes taking place in the body. A considerable amount of heat is released as a result of muscle activity, when work or training activities are performed. The amount of heat generated is proportional to intensity of work.
Temperature and humidity are likely to increase because of fires and explosions. Therefore, rescue team members are facing environments with high temperatures during rescue operations.
This paper presents a correlation between changes in physiological parameters of rescue personnel and variant values of temperature and humidity of the environment where they operate.
