Acute vascular effects of carbonated warm water lower leg immersion in healthy young adults
Endothelial dysfunction is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity; however, this dysfunction may be ameliorated by several therapies. For example, it has been reported that heat-induced increases in blood flow and shear stress enhance endothelium-mediated vasodilator function. Under these backgrounds, we expect that carbon dioxide (CO2)-rich water-induced increase in s...
متن کاملPsychobiologic effects of water-immersion-induced hypodynamics.
O F THE many biomedical problems that man will encounter in eventual space flight, prolonged weightlessness is the most difficult to evaluate. Having evolved in the normal gravitational field of the Earth, man will find that the muscular efforts, consciously or subconsciously needed in normal life, will be markedly reduced in a floating type of existence. That component of muscular tone previou...
متن کاملPeripheral neurobiologic mechanisms of antiallodynic effect of warm water immersion therapy on persistent inflammatory pain.
Water immersion is widely used in physiotherapy and might relieve pain, probably by activating several distinct somatosensory modalities, including tactile, pressure, and thermal sensations. However, the endogenous mechanisms behind this effect remain poorly understood. This study examined whether warm water immersion therapy (WWIT) produces an antiallodynic effect in a model of localized infla...
متن کاملBenefit of warm water immersion on biventricular function in patients with chronic heart failure
BACKGROUND Regular physical activity and exercise are well-known cardiovascular protective factors. Many elderly patients with heart failure find it difficult to exercise on land, and hydrotherapy (training in warm water) could be a more appropriate form of exercise for such patients. However, concerns have been raised about its safety.The aim of this study was to investigate, with echocardiogr...
متن کاملAge-Dependent Autonomic Changes Following Immersion in Cool, Neutral, and Warm Water Temperatures
Aquatic immersion has been reported to produce a significant number of physiological changes in blood pressure, heart rate variability (HRV), autonomic nervous system (ANS), and core temperature in young healthy subjects. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of water immersion in younger and older populations, determining whether there are age related differences for ANS regulati...
