  1. 1. The human diving response : effects of temperature and training

    Författare :Erika Schagatay; Lunds universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Djurfysiologi; pig; human; training; breath-holding time; breaking point; cold-receptors; arterial blood; vasoconstriction; bradycardia; diving reflex; diving response; Breath-hold diving; Animal physiology; simulated diving; Organism biology; Organismbiologi; Sports; Idrott; Physiology; Fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to elucidate the cardiovascular response associated with breath-hold diving, especially the effects of temperature in its elicitation and the effects of different types of training on the human diving response (DR) and breath-holding time (BHT), and to evaluate the human DR in a mammalian perspective. A model for simulated diving by apnea and facial immersion in cold water was developed. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Cardiovascular and respiratory effects of apnea in humans

    Författare :Johan Andersson; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lung volume; breath-hold diving; Apnea; breath-holding; face immersion; cold stimulation; diving response; diving reflex; circulation; bradycardia; vasoconstriction; arterial blood pressure; cardiac output; spleen; respiration; splenic contraction; alveol; Physiology; Fysiologi; Respiratory system; Andningsorganen; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with cardiovascular and respiratory effects of apneas in humans. During apnea (breath-holding), a number of interacting cardiovascular reflexes are initiated, and together these reflexes are called the “diving response”. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Severe hypoxemia during apnea in humans : influence of cardiovascular responses

    Författare :Peter Lindholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Diving response; breath holding; bradycardia; vasoconstriction; hypoxia;

    Sammanfattning : When a diving human holds his or her breath, the heart beat slows and the blood vessels constrict in large portions of the body. In diving mammals such as seals, similar responses effectively conserve oxygen for the brain, enabling them to dive very deep and to stay underwater for a long time. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Psychomotor and cardiorespiratory functions during inert gas sedation

    Författare :Anders Östlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :arterial baroreflex; heart rate; gas density; hyperbaric bradycardia; inert gas; inspiratory loading; narcosis; nitrous oxide; sedation; ventilation;

    Sammanfattning : Relative hypoventilation and bradycardia are commonly observed in both resting and exercising divers. Divers are exposed to a complex environment where there are increases of hydrostatic pressure, gas density and partial pressure of sedating inert gas. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Human responses to cold and wind

    Författare :Désirée Gavhed; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Bradycardia; blood pressure; clothing insulation; cold; exercise; heart rate; IREQ; mean skin temperature; metabolic rate; rectal temperature; subjective ratings; wind; Wind Chill Index; work.;

    Sammanfattning : Cold is stressful for the human being and has physical, subjective and physiological effects. Body cooling must be prevented to provide for the worker's comfort and safety in cold workplaces. LÄS MER
