Short radius intermittent centrifugation as a countermeasure to bed-rest and 0-G deconditioning: IMAG pilot study summary and recommendations for research
J Gravit Physiol.
2007 Jul.
Abstract
Head down bed-rest for 21 days was used as a ground analog of space flight in a pilot study to assess the pros and cons of daily 1 hr short radius centrifugation as a flight countermeasure. Positive results were found for cardiovascular and muscle protection, effectiveness was indicated for bone protection, and no negative issues interfering with high speed centrifugation were uncovered. The directions for extension of artificial gravity (AG) research to make it practical for extended space voyages are presented.
