  2. Physiology of decompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_decompression

    Systematic tests have shown that the timing of thermal status is important. Body warmth, promoting high perfusion during ingassing, promotes high inert gas loading, which increases decompression risk. Body warmth during decompression, and the associated higher overall perfusion, promotes high rates of outgassing, and reduces decompression risk.

  3. Human thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_thermoregulation

    Adjusting the human body temperature downward has been used therapeutically, in particular, as a method of stabilizing a body following trauma. It has been suggested that adjusting the adenosine A1 receptor of the hypothalamus may allow humans to enter a hibernation -like state of reduced body temperature, which could be useful for applications ...

    Studies show that keeping your head at the appropriate height—about 2 inches (or 5 centimeters) off the bed—helps air flow into the lungs and stabilizes your respiratory function. However ...

  5. Cold and heat adaptations in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_and_heat_adaptations...

    The human body always works to remain in homeostasis. One form of homeostasis is thermoregulation. Body temperature varies in every individual, but the average internal temperature is 37.0 °C (98.6 °F). [1] Sufficient stress from extreme external temperature may cause injury or death if it exceeds the ability of the body to thermoregulate.

    Add lemonade to a large mug and microwave for 30 to 60 seconds until just warmed. Add 6 ounces of hot water (just off the boil) to the mug and steep one teapigs green tea with peach for 5 minutes.

  7. Work of breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_of_breathing

    The normal relaxed state of the lung and chest is partially empty. Further exhalation requires muscular work. Inhalation is an active process requiring work. [4] Some of this work is to overcome frictional resistance to flow, and part is used to deform elastic tissues, and is stored as potential energy, which is recovered during the passive process of exhalation, Tidal breathing is breathing ...

  9. Thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoregulation

    Normal body temperature is around 37°C (98.6°F), and hypothermia sets in when the core body temperature gets lower than 35 °C (95 °F). [2] Usually caused by prolonged exposure to cold temperatures, hypothermia is usually treated by methods that attempt to raise the body temperature back to a normal range.
