Influence of Sleep Disorders and Fatigue over Aircrew
The performance of aircrew is subject to multiple factors that may interfere with human alertness, cognitive functions, and the ability to make tough decisions. The workload and flight routines of aircrew make them subject to sleep disorders and excessive fatigue that may compromise their dexterity and, consequently, their life quality and the safe and secure aircraft operation. Despite the availability of pharmacological and adaptive solutions, preventing exhaustive workloads in an approach already done by some nations that should be an example to others. Aircrew in general are subject to shift work disorders, since multiple flights nowadays have early departure times, late arrival times or are operated overnight. When summed with jet lag resulting from intercontinental flights, aircrew awareness and awakeness are compromised. Close attention must be paid to this, seeking to optimize the work shifts to allow natural correction of these disorders. Proper regulation from the national agencies is advised and must be enforced for measures to take place at the largest range of subjects.
