Prophylactic [correction of prophylatic] effects of intermittent acceleration against physiological deconditioning in simulated weightlessness.
The prophylactic effect on adult human males of intermittent acceleration against physiological deconditioning in weightlessness simulated by water immersion was studied at +0.8, +1.2, and +1.6 g. These prophylactic exposures reduced renal excretion of fluid and plasma volume changes, and increased venous compliance and the time at which the subjects could tolerate an acceleration field of +3 g.
