Lower body negative pressure identifies altered central vein characteristics without accompanying changes to baroreflexes in astronauts within hours of landing
Abstract Cardiovascular deconditioning and altered baroreflexes predispose returning astronauts to Orthostatic Intolerance. We assessed 7 astronauts (1 female) before and following long-duration spaceflight (146 ± 43 days) with minimal upright posture prior to testing. We applied lower body negative...
