Acute and intermediate cardiovascular responses to zero gravity and to fractional gravity levels induced by head-down or head-up tilt

Abstract

Determination of early cardiovascular responses to simulated gravity levels between 0 and 1 G will add knowledge of cardiovascular responses to space flight. Cardiovascular responses to 6 hours in a -5 degrees head-down bedrest model of weightlessness (0 G) were compared to those in head-up tilts of +10 degrees, +20 degrees, and +42 degrees (1/6, 1/3, and 2/3 G, respectively). Six healthy young adult males experienced the four angles on separate days. Impedance cardiography was used to measure thoracic fluid index, cardiac output, stroke volume, and peak flow. Although much intersubject variation occurred, the mean thoracic fluid content at -5 degrees decreased during the first hour and remained decreased; 6-hour values were similar to +10 degrees and +20 degrees. Heart rate decreased the first 2 hours for all angles, then increased, converging at 3-4 hours, and reached control by hour 6. Stroke volume decreased for the first 3 hours at -5 degrees, +10 degrees, +20 degrees; values at all four angles converged at hour 3 and increased in unison thereafter. Cardiac output and peak aortic flow reflected the angle at start of tilt; values at all angles converged by the second hour, decreased through the third hour, and increased thereafter. Pulse pressure decreased for the first 3 hours for angles -5 degrees, +10 degrees, and +20 degrees, converged at the fourth hour, and returned to control. Peak flow at +42 degrees was constant for the first 3 hours and increased thereafter. Blood pressure decreased for the first 2 hours, although the greatest decrease occurred at -5 degrees and +42 degrees; thereafter, values at all angles increased in unison and converged at the fourth hour. Total peripheral resistance increased during the first hour at -5 degrees and +20 degrees and decreased from hour 3 to hours 5-6 at the +42 degrees angle. Cardiovascular values were related to tilt angle for the first 2 hours of tilt, but after hour 3 values at all four angles began to converge, suggesting that cardiovascular homeostatic mechanisms seek a common adapted state regardless of effective gravity level (tilt angle) up to 2/3 G.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
