Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism During Vertical Immersion and In-Water Exercise

Abstract Background: Vertical head-out water immersion has different physiological effects on the human body system due to hydrostatic pressure and temperatures. This review examines changes in cerebral blood flow metabolism during in-water exercise Method: Systematic research was conducted PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus databases, by binary methods. It included 11 articles that met inclusion criteria. Results: Studies have shown acutely vertical thermoneutral positively affects circulation of brain. Conclusion: In healthy people, increases brain activity increasing artery velocity oxygenation. But hot cold does not a positive effect circulation.
