Altered Venous Function during Long-Duration Spaceflights

Altered Venous Function during Long-Duration Spaceflights

Aims: Venous adaptation to microgravity, associated with cardiovascular deconditioning, may contribute to orthostatic intolerance following spaceflight. The aim of this study was to analyze the main parameters of venous hemodynamics with long-duration spaceflight.Methods: Venous plethysmography was...
