MODERN WATER TREATMENT FILTERS FOR INDIVIDUAL USE IN THE FIELD

In accordance with the theoretical fundamentals of prevention of diseases of servicemen caused by the water factor, the directions and content of medical control and state sanitary and epidemiological surveillance of water supply at points of permanent deployment of troops are presented. The regulatory and legal base regulating the directions of achieving sanitary and epidemiological well-being by organizing a reliable and safe centralized water supply to the population (troops) is given. Laboratory quality control of drinking water and water sources for microbiological, virological and parasitological indicators is carried out by specialists of sanitary-epidemiological institutions, using the appropriate methodological arsenal. Special attention during sanitary and epidemiological surveillance and medical control is drawn to the organization of sanitary protection zones in accordance with the requirements of SanPiN 2.1.4.1110-02. It is noted that the legal and property relations of legal entities, associated with the protection of water sources, the development, approval and maintenance of sanitary protection zones are complex and need further improvement, including upgrading the status of sanitary protection zones for water sources to the level of specially protected natural territories by adopting a special federal law, or appropriate amendments to water, sanitary and environmental legislation. The main control preventive functions of the medical service of military units and sanitary-epidemiological institutions during the design, construction, acceptance and operation of water supply facilities in military camps are substantiated. It is shown that in the chain “vodokanal-regulatory authorities-consumer” existing in each garrison, an important link is the consumer, who is proposed to be considered, as an important and promising link capable of raising the quality control of drinking water, as a product to the proper level. Attention is focused on the predictive role of hygienic diagnosis of risk factors for the deterioration of the health of consumers of water.
