Sitting | Supine | HDT | HDT + LBNP(25) | HDT + LBNP(50) | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Blood pressure, mmHg* | 87 ± 20 | 84 ± 20 | 82 ± 19 | 76 ± 28 | 85 ± 11 |
Heart rate, beats/min | 68 ± 8 | 59 ± 8 | 59 ± 9 | 61 ± 6 | 74 ± 10 |
Values are means ± SD. HDT, head-down tilt; LBNP, lower-body negative pressure; HDT + LBNP(25), HDT with −25 mmHg pressure; HDT + LBNP(50), HDT with −50 mmHg pressure.
Reported as mean arterial pressure. Blood pressure and heart rate did not change significantly across all test conditions.
