Brief Summary
|
(a) To assess body composition in females after six hours of dry supine immersion. (b) To evaluate the autonomic cardiovascular function during simulated microgravity. (c) To evaluate the vascular blood flow dynamics in the above individuals before and after simulated microgravity. (d) To assess lung function before and after microgravity.
To study the body composition, pulmonary function, autonomic cardiovascular response and blood flow dynamics in healthy females during exposure to 06 hours of simulated microgravity using thermoneutral Dry Supine Immersion (DSI) facility. |
