Impact of Graded Passive Cycling on Hemodynamics, Brain, and Heart Perfusion in Healthy Adults

Purpose: Passive in-bed cycling (PC) can provide the benefits of early mobilization to critically ill patients who are unable to exercise actively. However, the effect of PC on global hemodynamics and perfusion of ischemia-prone organs, such as the brain and the heart, is unknown. Therefore, prior t...
