| Abstract |
In a project dealing with crew's workload on board an off-shore trawler, the fishermen's heart rate was recorded (Holter method) during a 24h period. The necessity of analysing, at the same time, the crew's activity is emphasised. It was found that strain on the heart increased when the fishermen were obliged to perform heavy work involving fishing gear. |
