1 PROGRAM D 2.1: Fire Fighter Health & Safety THE BUSHFIRE FIGHTING TEST: Quantifying a safe standard of fitness and health in CFA volunteers. Matthew Phillips, Brad Aisbett and Glenn McConell Department of Physiology, The University of Melbourne, Vic David Nichols Country Fire Authority, Vic A potential problem In Victoria alone: - 58,000 volunteer fire fighters career fire fighters - Mandatory testing for career fire fighters in recruit course - Minimum fitness for entry - No mandatory testing or standards for volunteer Same fires 1
2 A POTENTIAL PROBLEM PROGRAM D : Presentation Title Environmental conditions (fuel load, terrain, temp, humidity) Demands of bushfire Physiological capability Considerations - Fitness -Health - Experience - Fatigue -Nutrition Successful, safe bushfire suppression Over exertion injury Overexertion related injury - Fire ground injury caused by physical demands exceeding physical capability. - Sudden cardiac death - Heat illness - Muscle strain/ tear - Traditionally measured in - lost man hours - compensation costs - mortality rate? - Overexertion injury risk unknown in Aus volunteer FF. Risk may be high. Is this a good place to stand? - Risk mediated by operational readiness tests 2
3 Existing operational readiness tests PROGRAM D : Presentation Title Predictive tests of productivity & safety during fire suppression - USFS pack test - Multistage 20m shuttle run (beep test) - CFA challenge test FUTURE - Bushfire fighting test Program D2.1 problems summarised 1. Physical demands of tanker based bushfire suppression unknown 2. Physical capabilities of volunteer bushfire fighters involved in tanker based bushfire suppression are unknown 3. Current operational readiness tests may not be appropriate for tanker based bushfire suppression 3
4 Bushfire test development process PROGRAM D : Presentation Title Invention - Physical demands Industry consultation Validity - Test creation - Test reliability - Operational readiness comparisons - Test sensitivity - Operationally viable Real world application Industry consultation - Relevance through fire fighting literature - Input of fire fighters, instructors and operational people - Input of emergency services industry & other academics - Test has to be valid, simple and useful to have real world application 4
5 Assessing Physical Demands - Prescribed burn job by job task analysis: - Mucking up/ rake hoe - Hose spraying - Equipment carry - Hose advance (through terrain) - Fireline walking (varied terrain) - Expired air sample analysis, HR, physical activity monitors - Frequency & duration - Maximal & stratified levels obtained Test creation 1. Relevance: literature, current tests bushfire 2. Good science: robust, valid test Durability Prospective test Industry input Test- task specificity Idiot proof Practicality 5
6 The proposed bushfire fighting test This test is great 15-20m 1) Hose advance Phase 2) Arm Crank Phase Factors to consider: - Resistance mechanism - Practical distance - Modality changes - Dexterity component - Reliability 3) Repeat Operational Readiness Comparison Operational readiness Pack test Beep test CFA challenge test Bushfire fighting test Aerobic capacity Treadmill VO 2max (lab) - Correlation data between all tests - Importance of aerobic capacity in bushfire suppression - Additional health and fitness testing - Grip strength - Lung function - Health 6
7 The Importance of Health (Cardiovascular) Association between BMI and health characteristics (indexed to age) BMI Normal <25 Overweight 25>30 Obese 30>39 Morbidly Obese >39 VO 2max Systolic Diastolic Associations in fire fighters with CVD risk factors: -Systolic BP -Triglycerides -Diastolic BP -Total cholesterol -Cholesterol/ HDL ratio Adapted from Clark et al., 2002 The Importance of Health (Respiratory) Australian Population American FF (Byrd & Collins) Age Group FEV 1 / FVC ratio FEV 1 / FVC ratio ~30% of sample populations in literature are smokers - Higher chance of respiratory damage - Some acute changes in lung function in American Wildfire FF 7
8 Establishing a standard/ guideline Bushfire tasks Test Reserve Physical Demand Test Intensity Real world Test Establishing a standard/ guideline Metabolic equivalent of most arduous job task Reserve level + = Guideline (%max) - Protocol design. Time until exhaustion Vs level - Durational component - CFA HQ decision - People Vs productivity per person 8
9 Does the test detect skill? fire fighter training Recruit FF Bushfire Test = BFT endurance training General public No specific additional training Volunteer FF BFT VO2max BFT VO2max BFT VO2max Week 1 Week 8 Week 16 Time - Does the bushfire test detect fire fighting specific skill? - Does the bushfire test pick up fire fighting performance increase independent of increased aerobic capacity? Does the test detect fatigue? Day 1 Max Bushfire test Day 2 Sub max simulated fire fighting bout + Max Bushfire test - Conducted in CFA volunteer fire fighters - Important as bushfire suppression is intermittently demanding over long durations - Can the bushfire test be used to pick up common operational related fatigue? - Model can also be used to test intervention strategies in the future 9
10 Outcomes 1. Understanding of the physiological demands and operational readiness needs of bushfire fighting in Australia 2. Understanding of the physiological capacity and operational readiness of Australian volunteer fire fighters 3. Validated and reliable operational readiness test for bushfire agencies 4. Some ability to mediate risk of overexertion injury in volunteer fire fighters Acknowledgements Brad Aisbett Glenn McConell Jim Pringle Mark Hargreaves David Nichols Peter Rau Steve Pitcher Adrian Hem 10
