Book Proceedings of the First Joint NASA Cardiopulmonary Workshop

Download or read book Proceedings of the First Joint NASA Cardiopulmonary Workshop written by Suzanne M. Fortney and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 5-7 December 1990, a workshop was held at the Johnson Space Center to promote communication and cross fertilization of ideas among NASA cardiopulmonary principal investigators. This was the first such meeting of cardiopulmonary investigators sponsored by the Johnson Space Center, Kennedy Space Center, and the Ames Research Center. Each principal investigator gave a 20-minute summary of recent progress in his or her laboratory. Topics covered included flight echocardiography (J. Charles), pulmonary function (H. Guy), central hemodynamics (R. Latham), glycerol hyperhydration (M. Riedesel), spectral analysis (C. Knapp and A. Goldberger), lower body negative pressure countermeasures (S. Fortney), orthostatic tolerancy (J. Buckey), autonomic function (V. Convertino, M. Smith, D. Eckberg), cardiac deconditioning (C. Tipton), fluid and renal responses to head-down tilt (B. Tucker), local fluid regulation (A. Hargens), endocrine regulation during bedrest (J. Vernikos, C. Wade), autogenic feedback (P. Cowings), and chronic cardiovascular measurements (S. Vatner). The program ended with a general discussion of weightless models and countermeasures. Publisher.

  • Author : Jack W Stuster
  • Publisher : Naval Institute Press
  • Release : 2011-01-15
  • ISBN : 1612510310
  • Pages : 410 pages

Download or read book Bold Endeavors written by Jack W Stuster and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bold Endeavors: Lessons from Polar and Space Exploration presents the results of 15 years of research for NASA and the Department of Defense concerning the factors that contribute to adjustment and sustained human performance under conditions of isolation and confinement. The research involved the study of previous space operations and conditions on Earth, such as submarines, Antarctic stations, polar expeditions, and voyages of discovery, that are comparable to what might be expected for future long duration space missions. Bold Endeavors is read by students, engineers, behavioral scientists, modern explorers, and the personnel staffing US Antarctic stations, among others; it has been described as “required reading” for members of NASA’s Expedition Corps, astronauts who are preparing for expeditions to the International Space Station and beyond. Bold Endeavors is of interest to the fields of psychology, psychiatry, human factors and ergonomics, anthropology, aerospace engineering, space medicine, personnel selection, organizational management, and the history of exploration. The chapter on Food is even used as a reference in culinary and hospitality-management programs.

Book Physiological Responses to Prolonged Bed Rest and Fluid Immersion in Man

Download or read book Physiological Responses to Prolonged Bed Rest and Fluid Immersion in Man written by John Edward Greenleaf and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water immersion and prolonged bed rest reproduce nearly all the physiological responses observed in astronauts in the weightless state. Moreover, it appears that relative to actual weightlessness, given responses tend to occur sooner in immersion and later in bed rest. Much research has been conducted on humans using these two techniques, especially by Russian scientists. This compendium contains abstracts and annotations of reports that appeared in the literature from January 1974 through December 1980. Two other related compendia have been published: Adaptation to Prolonged Bed Rest in Man: A Compendium of Research, by J.E. Greenleaf, C.J. Greenleaf, D. Van Derveer, and K.J. Dorchak (NASA TM X-3307, 1976); and Physiologic Responses to Water Immersion in Man: A Compendium of Research, by J. Kollias, D. Van Derveer, K.J. Dorchak, and J.E. Greenleaf (NASA TM X-3308, 1976).
