P02.181. Heart rate variability and peripheral temperature during whole body immersion at different water temperatures

Methods Twenty-one healthy subjects (age: 24.3 ± 2.3 years, 11 female) underwent WI with water temperatures of 33°C (WI33), 36°C (WI36), 39°C (WI39). The procedure was: supine rest (30 minutes), WI (20 minutes) and supine rest (30 minutes). An ECG, the nasal/oral airflow, core body and temperature of extremities were recorded. The results of the last 5 minutes at the end of each interval are pr...

Girlfriend gets too wet

Vaginal lubrication during sex is usually a good indicator of arousal. Many women get very wet when aroused, while others have difficulties getting wet enough [2] for pleasurable intercourse. The volume of fluid can vary greatly from person to person, and can fluctuate for a woman throughout her menstrual cycle. Other factors that can affect vaginal secretions include diet, stress, medications,...

Cardiovascular regulation during water immersion.

Head-out water immersion at thermoneutral temperature (34-35 degrees C) increases cardiac output for a given O2 consumption, leading to a relative hyperperfusion of peripheral tissues. To determine if subjects immersed in water at a colder temperature show similar responses and to explore the significance of the hyperperfusion, cardiovascular functions were investigated (impedance cardiography)...
