Proceedings of the First Joint NASA Cardiopulmonary Workshop
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.
Body Fluid Balance
Body Fluid Balance: Exercise and Sport brings you the latest thinking on important topics in this dynamic research area. The authors of this authoritative compendium provide enlightening data and unique perspectives that will stimulate other investigators and supply independent analyses for practitioners and educators. The book is efficiently organized into three sections: Section one addresses control of body fluid during exercise. Topics range from basic thirst mechanisms to specific organ control. Section two discusses environmental influences on body fluid balance, including heat, cold, altitude, and immersion. Section three describes special considerations affecting body fluid balance during exercise, such as age, gender, physical performance, and clinical complications. Each chapter presents historical perspectives, critical experiments, appropriate analyses, and pertinent conclusions. Nowhere else will you find the information you need in such an easy-to-follow, convenient format.
