Resumen
Siendo el paro cardiorrespiratorio una de las principales causas de muertes de
bomberos de Chile, sumado al bajo control físico-médico para el ingreso a esta
institución es que se decide realizar este estudio, el que tuvo por objetivo
demostrar, evaluar y describir la actual condición física de los bomberos
voluntarios activos pertenecientes a la 15ª, 18ª, 19ª y 20ª compañías del
Cuerpo de Bomberos de Santiago de Chile.
Para llevar a cabo este estudio los voluntarios se enfrentaron pruebas físicas
para postulantes, extraídas del Departamento de Bomberos de Munich,
Alemania, las cuales fueron carrera de mil metros (248,55 ± 30,91 ), saltos
alternados sobre una viga (39,6 ± 842). barras (6,40 ± 4,56), cincuenta metros
de natación (51,25 ± 18,92), apnea (18,91 ± 9,30) y boomerang (112,80 ±
21,35), también a una medición antropométrica para cual se utilizó el método
pentacompartimental de Kerr y Ross (1986) (28,98 ± 5,58) y una tercera y
última prueba para determinar el consumo de oxígeno máximo a través del
Test del escalón de Astrand y Rhyming (46,83 ± 8,32).
Se logro demostrar que la condición física actual de los bomberos de las
compañías evaluadas no es óptimo para las actividades que realizan en
servicio.
Considering that the cardio respiratory attack is one of the main causes of death among the Chilean firefighters, and taking into account the low physical and medical standards that are necessary to apply for this institution, the objective of this research is to demonstrate, evaluate, and describe the present physical condition of the active firefighters that belong to the 15th , 178th , 19th , and 20th companies of Santiago de Chile. To accomplish this, the volunteers were faced to the physical tests far the applicants to Munich Fire Department, in Germany, that test was a thousand meters (248,55 ± 30,91), altemating jumps behind the balance beam (39,6 ± 842), highbars (6,40 ± 4,56), fifty meters of swimming (51,25 ± 18,92), apnea (18,91 ± 9,30) and boomerang (112,80 ± 21,35), also an anthropometrical evaluation with the Kerr and Ross's five components test (1986) (28,98 ± 5,58) and finaly to a third test to determine the consumption of oxygen through the Astrand and Rhyming step Test (46,83 ± 8,32). As a result of this, it has been demonstrated that the present physical condition of the fire fighters that belong to the companies mentioned above is not convenient for the activities that they peñorm while they are in service.
