Effects of artificial gravity on the vascular system during 60 days of strict head-down tilt bedrest

Résumé fourni par la source

This study characterized the rapid redistribution of blood volume from the upper to the lower body during exposure to artificial gravity (AG) via human centrifugation. Both intermittent and continuous AG protocols induced fluid shifts to the lower body; however, effects diminished immediately after AG cessation. The findings suggest that although AG may be an effective countermeasure to physiologic changes resulting from the spaceflight-induced headward fluid shift, efficacy will depend on duration and dose of AG.
