Perspective directions of research on the prevention of morbidity and traumatism of the members of vessel`s crew of the river transport fleet during the development of the Northern Sea Route

The new stage of development of the Northern Sea Route, the only highway connecting the subarctic and arctic regions of the Russian Federation, involves the development of a transport system, the complex of which includes all the rivers flowing into the Arctic Ocean. Despite the large number and vastness of the river basins in the Russian Federation, their importance for the effective operation of the country’s economy, the problem of preventing traumatism of the members of vessel`s crew of the river transport fleet was reflected in research by a small number of practitioners, individual scientists and medical research teams.
