title: [The role of physical load in the reaction of the circulatory system to professional work].
abstract: In order to evaluate the effect of particular elements of physical workload on the heart rate in a group of 148 women working at 18 work-posts whose jobs were characterized by different physical workload, 24-hour cardiograms were made using Holter's method and applying the Medilog 3000 (Oxford). It was observed that heart rate heart rate during work was higher in women who performed jobs demanding dynamic physical effort, and lower in those subjects who performed static work. Heart rate during work was positively correlated with the dynamic effort intensity and negatively--with the intensity of light dynamic work and static workload, which means that particular elements of physical workload are of different physiological importance. Therefore, the synthetic indicator of physical workload cannot be treated as a sum of the intensity of particular elements. Consequences of physical workload lasted during daytime. During sleep and leisure hours the effect of physical workload intensity upon the cardiac contraction frequency is not significant.
